1. Always handle errors gracefully - Check response codes and error messages
2. Use pagination efficiently - Don't request more data than you need
3. Cache authentication tokens - Tokens have a reasonable lifetime; don't request new tokens for every API call
4. Validate data before submission - Client-side validation can prevent unnecessary API errors
5. Use JSON Patch for updates - It's more efficient than replacing entire resources
6. Check custom fields - Rental products, usage products, and rental inventories may have custom fields configured
7. Monitor email status - Use GET /email-status to check the status of email notifications sent from Elevate
