**Description**  
We are currently deploy an Integration for our DataDog monitoring service that monitors Zoom Rooms/Meetings. Because of the size of our Zoom instance we hit the API call limit with in the first few minutes of it running.

**Error**  
The only “error” message we see is just the one that says the API limit has been reached.

**Which App Type (OAuth / Chatbot / JWT / Webhook)?**  
This is an integration for DataDog

**Which Endpoint/s?**  
It is a Linux server that is running Datadog service with the RapDev Zoom integration.

**How To Reproduce (If applicable)**  
Steps to reproduce the behavior:  
Start the Datadog service on the linux server and wait a few minutes and check the logs.

**Additional context**  
Need to know if there is a way to increase the number of API calls allowed for our large instance.
