Review of the Meetup .com API for Module 10.4
Meetup.com API
1. Most request require authentication
2. Yes, the meetup API supports CORS
3. The best fit for this seems to be the Find Upcoming Events. The Response returns a list of events resolved by the City. It will show the City, Country, Id, Lat/Lon, member count, the full name of the city as a string, The state, and the zip code. there are other responses available as well.
4. If you exceed the number of allowed request you will be throttled, and if that continues you will be blocked for a period of time.
5. Depending on what going on you can see any of the following status codes: 200 good, 400 Bad Request, 401 Unauthorized, 429 Too Many Request, 500 Internal Server Error.
