Request Limit Reached

Use this page when requests fail because the API key has reached the request limit for the current cycle.

Symptoms

You may see:

  • 429 Too Many Requests
  • request_limit_reached
  • API request limit reached
  • A response showing request_limit and requests_used

Likely Causes

Common causes include:

  • The key has reached its monthly request allowance.
  • Automated tests or retries sent more requests than expected.
  • Multiple environments are sharing the same key.
  • A background job is repeatedly calling the API.

How to Check

  1. Open API Key Management.
  2. Check request usage for the key.
  3. Open Dashboard Overview.
  4. Review recent API activity.
  5. Check application logs for retry loops or repeated calls.

How to Fix

  • Pause automated jobs that are sending unnecessary requests.
  • Reduce retry frequency.
  • Use fewer test requests while debugging.
  • Wait for the next renewal cycle.
  • Upgrade or change plans if your application needs a higher request limit.
