New to Zoom REST API? Follow this path:

1. API Architecture - Base URLs, regional URLs, me keyword, ID vs UUID, time formats
2. Authentication Flows - OAuth setup (S2S, User, PKCE, Device Code)
3. Meeting URLs vs Meeting SDK - Stop mixing join_url with Meeting SDK
4. Meeting Lifecycle - Create → Update → Start → End → Delete with webhooks
5. Rate Limiting Strategy - Plan tiers, per-user limits, retry patterns
