How to handle : 403 : userRateLimitExceeded

[devasur]

Getting this on my production server randomly for some users.

What is the right strategy to handle this error? If I were to retry where should I insert the retry routine? I have Google+ APIs enabled. It works fine in most cases. But I think under load there is a chance of getting this error.

Express

 ],

 }
}
)

As error clearly suggest - you have reached your requests limit. At the moment of writing these limits for free accounts are: Free quota - 20,000,000 requests/day Per-user limit - 5 requests/second/user

@simnare I also get the same error but I am very sure I haven't crossed the free quota.
