Hello to everyone.
I tried to read some topics, but there is confusion in the search engine between the actual limit of webinars that I can create in 1 day and the limit of clients that can participate together.
When I try to create 100+ webinars in a single day I am blocked by an error:
”You have exceeded the daily rate limit (100) of Meeting Create / Update API…”
I have a webapp in which each of my customers insert their server to server credentials and create Zoom meeting with them. Some of them need to increase the limit. Is this any option available to buy?
There isn’t a formal way to raise the meeting / webinar creation rate limit. This limit was introduced because each call may cause email messages to be sent out to arbitrary email addresses, and any mistakes that cause mass amounts of email messages to be sent can damage Zoom’s email deliverability reputation if the recipient complains.
Are your customers holding more than 100 events in a single day? If not, separate out the calls to subsequent days. Our application records what the desired schedule should be on our side and periodically compares and synchronizes against what Zoom thinks is the schedule, so even if we run into a rate limit or other interference, we’ll eventually try again.

Hello Christopher,
The main problem is that rescheduling is extremely difficult, if not impossible, in my current setup.
My customers are gyms that create all the recurrences for their entire working year in just a few days, including online meetings. Many of them already did this operation in the last few days and some of their lessons are without a working link of Zoom.
I need to know if the following can serve as a patch for the lessons that are currently broken (I have online lessons without generated Zoom links because the API limit was reached during creation):
Proposed Solution: Take the first lesson’s webinar link and copy it to all subsequent lessons that are missing links (both starting and joining links). This would give me a working link for future lessons, even though the original meeting may be scheduled in the past at some point.
Critical Question: Do Zoom meeting links have an expiration date?
If the links don’t expire, this patch would allow my customers to continue using their scheduled lessons without having to recreate their entire year’s worth of bookings.
Can you confirm whether this approach will work?
On the other hand, I need of course to change my pipeline of actions during the creation of meetings. A good solution is to schedule all of the lessons of the same group with a single permanent meeting, is this possible?
