TL;DR

Investigate and adjust the API request rate to prevent exceeding the subscription plan's rate limit.

Guidance

  • Review the API documentation to understand the rate limiting rules and thresholds for the current subscription plan.
  • Check the application's API request logs to identify any unexpected or excessive requests that may be contributing to the rate limit issues.
  • Consider implementing rate limiting or exponential backoff strategies in the application to handle API request failures and prevent further limit breaches.
  • Verify the subscription plan details to ensure it aligns with the expected API usage and adjust the plan if necessary.

Notes

The issue lacks specific details about the API requests and usage patterns, making it challenging to provide a precise solution. Further investigation into the application's API usage and request patterns is necessary to identify the root cause.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Implement rate limiting or exponential backoff strategies in the application to handle API request failures and prevent further limit breaches. This approach can help mitigate the issue while the root cause is being investigated.
