ER: discrepancies in meeting data sourced from API calls to VRMS vs. `vrms-data.json`

[roslynwythe]

Emergent Requirement - Problem

Two discrepancies were noted:

1. meeting data sourced from API calls to VRMS (/events-check) do NOT show Civic Tech Jobs DEV meeting Wed 5-6 pm, but that meeting is displayed on pages using vrms-data.json as a data source (/projects/civic-tech-jobs or /events)
2. meeting data sourced from API calls to VRMS (/events-check) show Civic Tech Jobs DEV meeting Fri 2-4 pm, but that meeting is NOT displayed on pages using vrms-data.json as a data source (/projects/civic-tech-jobs or /events)

Note: Currently /project-meetings uses API calls to VRMS but will be modified in the near future to use vrms-data.json

Hi @roslynwythe.

Please don't forget to add the proper labels to this issue. Currently, the labels for the following are missing:

• Complexity, Role, Feature

NOTE: Please ignore this comment if you do not have 'write' access to this directory.

To add a label, take a look at Github's documentation here.

Also, don't forget to remove the "missing labels" afterwards. To remove a label, the process is similar to adding a label, but you select a currently added label to remove it.

After the proper labels are added, the merge team will review the issue and add a "Ready for Prioritization" label once it is ready for prioritization.
