Rate limits

A few endpoints limit how fast you can create things. Reads are not limited.

Endpoint	Limit
`POST /members`	100 new members an hour per workspace. Members created by a pushed event count too.
`POST /calendar_events`	1,000 pushes a minute per workspace.
`POST /bots`	100 bots an hour per workspace.
`POST /workspaces`	20 workspaces a day per API user, archived ones included.

When the limit is reached, the API returns 429 Too Many Requests with a retry_in_seconds field in the response body, and the same number in the Retry-After header:

{
  "errors": [{ "code": "rate_limited", "message": "Too many requests. Try again in 42 seconds." }],
  "retry_in_seconds": 42
}

Wait that many seconds before retrying. A simple backoff loop:

async function createMember(body) {
  while (true) {
    const res = await fetch('https://api.meetingkit.com/api/v1/members', {
      method: 'POST',
      headers: {
        authorization: process.env.MEETINGKIT_API_KEY,
        'happyscribe-version': '2026-10-12',
        'content-type': 'application/json',
      },
      body: JSON.stringify(body),
    });
    if (res.status !== 429) return res.json();
    const seconds = Number(res.headers.get('retry-after') ?? 60);
    await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, seconds * 1000));
  }
}
