1. Does this API require authentication?
'Most requests must be authenticated.'
2. Does this API support CORS?
Yes.
3. Find the events search endpoint documentation. Describe in detail the response format of the events search endpoint.
I'm assuming you are asking for: api.meetup.com/find/upcoming_events
The response is a list of objects which tell you the city and upcoming events in that city.
Inside the event opbject it has attendance info, host info, photo if given, description,
date created, date/time of event, and location of event etc. Pretty much everything
about the event listed.
4. What are the limitations placed on the number of requests that can be made?
By default limits users to 200 requests per hour, and 200 max results for each request.
If exceeded this number, the platform will return a 400 error response with limit
as the code element in the error response body.
5. List the errors that you can expect when making calls to this API.
400 Bad request when there was a problem with the request
401 Unauthorized when you don't provide a valid token
429 Too Many Requests when you've gone over your request rate limit
500 Internal Server Error an unexpected error occured on our servers
