ZenZap OAuth API is one of 8 APIs that [ZenZap](https://apis.io/providers/zenzap/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Authentication. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification and rate-limit docs.

OAuth 2.0 `client_credentials` grant. Used by API-key bots that were created with `credentialType: oauth` to mint short-lived bearer access tokens. **In a nutshell:** 1. Get a `clientId` and `clientSecret` from your bot in the Zenzap admin console. The `clientSecret` is shown once at creation; if lost, rotate it from the same screen. 2. `POST /oauth/token` with `grant_type=client_credentials` to receive a JWT access token (1-hour TTL). 3. Call any `/v2/*` endpoint with `Authorization: Bearer <access_token>`. No `X-Signature` / `X-Timestamp` headers are needed on the OAuth path. 4. Re-mint when the token expires. There is **no refresh token**. Scopes are granular per endpoint — see the [Authentication page](/api-reference/authentication#oauth-scopes) for the full scope catalog and the endpoint → scope mapping.
