I created an Event and published it with the following request:
REQUEST:
POST https://api.zoom.us/v2/zoom_events/events/OFhV7pxWRk-231g1MElqeA/event_actions
{"operation":"publish"}
RESPONSE:
HTTP/1.1 201 Created
Date: Mon, 14 Jul 2025 14:53:41 GMT

{"status":"published","event_id":"OFhV7pxWRk-231g1MElqeA"}
As you can see in the response, my event has been successfully published. So far, so good.
I subsequently attempted to create tickets for this event but my request failed with the following error message: Event is not published yet. Very strange!

I have created many events in the past and created many tickets for these events and I have never seen this error before. Also, I am not able to reproduce this problem. This error occurred only once.
Does anybody have any insight into this seemingly intermittent error?
