Google Photos API 429 Too Many Requests #134

Open aldo-leka opened 4 years ago

aldo-leka commented 4 years ago

I get a 429 error (Too Many Requests) when using the slideshow from Google Photos. With what account are the photos fetched, because I couldn’t see any related project in my Google Developer Console. I tried to check the Quota tab because apparently there’s a 75000 requests limit per project per day which, as I calculated, with 5 seconds intervals photos slideshow shouldn’t surpass the limit.

Hi, thank you for letting me know! Yeah, unfortunately the quotas are project-specific, rather than user-specific. That means that the following quota is valid for all PhotoCloud users:

The quota limit for requests to the Library API is 10,000 requests per project per day.

The quota limit for requests to access media bytes (by loading a photo or video from a base URL) is 75,000 requests per project per day.

I need to figure out whether it's possible to raise the quota limit...

There is a partner's program which may increase the quota here: https://developers.google.com/photos/partner-program/overview I'll apply, let's see where that will lead to.

I've applied, send the screenshots, waiting for Google to review and reply.

I've hopefully became a Google Partner, which should lift the limits quite a bit. Can you please confirm that you're no longer getting this issue, or are you still getting this bug?
