This Google Calendar step hit an error. The app returned "Rate Limit Exceeded".
We have unexpectedly reached some kind of rate limit, but we don’t understand why.
Overall we have invited 48 attendees on the same google calendar event.
Zapier seems to queue those invites (the trigger happens in Airtable), and we believe it tries to invite these people by batch. The first invite goes through but the second fails when it happens within a few seconds.
Typically below we have the execution of 4 invites at the same time (2 seconds delay), the first goes well, the second fails, the 3rd goes well and the fourth fails. It’s unclear why.
We looked into GCalendar limits https://support.google.com/a/answer/2905486 and notices we are bound to some limitation because we use a “Google for Nonprofits” plan. But the actual limits are not explicit.
Our initial goal was to invite a few dozen people to a Webinar event (the same event), we tried doing it using Airtable at first, but the Airtable integration behaves strangely by removing people before adding them again to the invite when changing the list of attendees (it seems to be thought to create a single event at a time rather than editing an existing event to add more invitees on top of the existing ones)n that’s why we decided to try Zapier, where we ran into the above-explained rate limit issue.
Do you have any suggestion as to why/how to avoid this rate limit? Thanks
