Hi, would like to understand how zoom treats registration requests to single webinar but different occurrence? Are they treated separately for a rate limit of 3 requests to add a registrant to webinar or consume a shared limit?
Hi @jdudulski , it’s treated as a single request provided you supply the occurrence ids in the query parameter. Check the query parameter section of the documentation here: Meetings APIs
Hi @gianni.zoom,
I’m unable to guess up front to which occurrences people will try to register. We have a registration form per each occurrence, and sometimes we have webinars with dozens of occurrences, where people try to register for a few of them.
This limitation is really annoying and IMHO does not make sense. Is there any work around for this?
Hi @jdudulski , perhaps I am misunderstanding, but is this an external registration form where you are then taking that data to register users via API? Otherwise, if it’s a Zoom registration form that they’re using, this is a non-issue because they are registering themselves and you are not using the API. The limit applies to the API requests.
Yes, I’m speaking about external registration form that utilizes add registrant to webinar API
Hi @jdudulski , thank you for clarifying. The limitation was determined to be appropriate via our rate limit team and there isn’t a simple way to get around it outside of having registration be through a Zoom registration form.
However, if you can see from the external form what occurrences they’ve sign up for, this can help. If you configure for registration_type: 3 when creating the webinar, you may be supply all of the occurrences to the parameter when adding them via API:
Ultimately, you’ll need the occurrence id info in order to efficiently batch register via API.
