For the first request when I call Zoom API to create an account and a room for a meeting I get 400 BAD request. But for 2nd or 3rd attempt with the same request parameters I get 200 OK and the account will be verified. Have you seen something similar? Thanks! 🙂 ```auto 400 Bad Request: 2024-09-27 12:55:54.675 29386: [sp.cgi] [INFO] Making HTTP POST-JSON request to: http://localhost:3012/api/users (local address: ) 2024-09-27 12:55:54.675 29386: [sp.cgi] [DEBUG] HTTP POST-JSON body: '{"email":"lszoom1@elevatehealth.net","last_name":"Room","first_name":"Virtual"}' 2024-09-27 12:55:55.202 29386: [sp.cgi] [INFO] Impl::Meetings: Response - status: 400 Bad Request, body:\n{"message":"Response was not successful (not HTTP 2xx)","type":"GENERIC"} 2024-09-27 12:55:55.204 29386: [sp.cgi] [FATAL] Something went wrong with LSMeetingConnector when creating user: Connection Error 200 OK: 2024-09-30 13:50:20.446 12444: [sp.cgi] [INFO] Making HTTP POST-JSON request to: http://localhost:3012/api/users (local address: ) 2024-09-30 13:50:20.446 12444: [sp.cgi] [DEBUG] HTTP POST-JSON body: '{"email":"lszoom1@elevatehealth.net","last_name":"Room","first_name":"Virtual"}' 2024-09-30 13:50:20.458 12444: [sp.cgi] [INFO] Impl::Meetings: Response - status: 200 OK, body:\n{"redirect_url":"https://zoom.us/oauth/authorize?response_type=code&client_id=33o3UTGR920RlV1UfoM5w&redirect_uri=[%redirect_page%]"} ``` ---
