# Introduction

The GetQuorum API (aka. GQ API) allows customers, partners and developers to create integrations with our virtual meeting and voting platform.

# Using the API

The GetQuorum API is a REST API that allows developers to request information from GetQuorum. With the API, you can create and manage virtual meetings, request information about voters, and retrieve post-meeting reports

Unless otherwise specified, the base URL for all requests is https://app.getquorum.com/api/v2.

# Authentication

Each HTTP request made to the GQ API must be authenticated via an API KEY or JWT.

# Using JWT or API Key

You must include the JWT or API Key as a Bearer Token in the Authorization header of each HTTP request.

Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_JWT_TOKEN/API_KEY>

To obtain a JWT, see the the Auth Endpoints page

To obtain an API Key, you can visit the Account Settings page on the GetQuorum Dashboard.

# Rate Limits

A rate limit define the maximum number of requests a single API key or JWT can make within a period of time. When a rate limit is exceed, the API requests (and all future requests) will fail and return a 429 status code. Once a rate limit is exceeded, the API key or JWT may not be used again for a period of 1 hour.

The X-Rate-Limit header returned in the response will let you know how close you are to hitting your rate limits.

Each API route may have it's own rate limit level and described below.

Rate Limit Levels

  • Low: Up to 50 requests per second
  • Medium: Up to 25 requests per second
  • High: Up to 10 requests per second

# Zoom Meeting / Webinar Limits

The number of concurrent Zoom Webinars or Meetings that your Account can run will be dependent on your plan.

Maximum number of participants in a Zoom Webinar or Meeting:

  • Zoom Meeting: 300 participants
  • Zoom Webinar: 500 participants

Participant capacity and meeting concurrecy limits can be increased upon request, however they may be subject to additional fees.
