- ⚠️ Rate limiting: Calendly enforces a rate limit of 1000 requests per hour per organization. Monitor usage and implement request throttling to avoid hitting limits.
- ⚠️ Organization scope: Most API requests require an organization URI. Ensure you obtain and use the correct organization identifier for your API calls.
- ⚠️ Webhook event payloads: Calendly webhooks contain minimal data in the payload. You’ll typically need to make follow-up API calls to retrieve complete event or invitee details.
