2 years ago It looks like you have seven Airthings devices you're trying to request data from. Currently the Airthings API query limit is 100 requests per hour and each device uses one request, so the default query interval of 2.5 minutes is too frequent for seven devices. Try changing the refreshInterval to 260 in the config and wait for the query limit to reset and see if it can go for more than an hour without getting this error.
Issue with polling data from Airthings API - this progressively stops working after working 1st time only. I have deleted the API on Airthings Dashboard and recreated it. I then update the plugin JSON file with the config and it works briefly and then it stops again. Values in Homekit are all now zero, or the sensor is ignored/disabled. Please can you fix....
