Too many requests?

We are running on cloud and I use a Phyton Script. I got a list of about 4500 entries and a big data list with over 1 milion rows with detailed information. I need to check for the same name and copy values into the 4500 entries list. I got a phyton script, which was doing fine until I reached line 3000 something.

Starte Skript…
Ein unerwarteter Fehler ist aufgetreten: [Errno 429] too many requests

So how long do I have to wait, until I can resume and run the script again?

Why is there any kind of limit, I only ran in batches of 20 and a max rows of 200 per running.

I really need help, the list needs to be finished this week.

I think I found the issue:

Bedeutung der Fehlermeldung
Das Limit von maximal 300 Anfragen pro Minute oder 5.000 pro Tag und Base wurde überschritten. Sie müssen warten, bis die API wieder Anfragen zulässt.

Schritte zur Fehlerbehebung
Optimieren Sie Ihren Code oder vergrößern Sie die Abstände zwischen den einzelnen Anfragen, um sicherzustellen, dass Sie unter dem Limit der Anfragen bleiben.

When will the base work again? Tomorrow??

Sorry for the inconvenience!

To protect the system from super heavy users - like you :wink: - that may cause stability issues. No seriously, we must enforce limits to protect the system. We cannot allow some users - most of them not aware of causing harm - to overload the system.

You obviously ran into the 5000 calls/day limit. The counter is reset daily.

Just for my further understanding.

Is this limit of 5000 rows a day for all bases company wide or is it for one base only?

The limit is per day and per base.

We deem this limit generous. Most uses cases do not exhaust this limit if implemented efficiently.
