Too many requests error #8

Closed sahilsh-dev closed 3 months ago

sahilsh-dev commented 3 months ago

When using the api endpoints, I always get 

Too many request from this IP, try again in 1 hour

even when it is my first request since many hours. This has happened many times. Kindly check as to why this is happening. I am sure, I am not making a lot of requests.

Okay, I will check it. Meanwhile, try to use it locally. And one more thing, can you tell me how you are using it?

I tried both from browsers and from code with python requests. Got the same response

To be honest, I faced this problem before when I was using the vercel servers. I am not able to figure out what was the problem at that time because locally it works absolutely fine. And that's why I change the server.

One more thing: try to use tools like Postman to fetch the data. In these tools, the response will contain headers where you can find the ratelimit key. Try this and tell me what it gives in response.

I haven't tried locally, as I am just looking to use it in a project as api. The issue happens when I try to go to the url after some long time. Then I have to wait for some time for it to work again. I'll close it as I found an alternate. Thanks
