Using the basic example provided is showing "Too many events!" after about 20 seconds #20

Does a free account only allow a set amount of requests per second to Sinricpro? I noticed after changing the setInterval timeout to 8000 instead of 2000 I didn't see the message. If this isn't a limitation of the account type and purely a limit to all accounts then the example should explain this.

Hi @drewklein20, There's a message rate limiter built into the SDK to protect the server from flooding with data. Please review your code and send events when the state has been changed or there's a significant change. We will update the examples

Yes this makes sense. What's confusing is the example you have provided is set up on a 2 second interval to fire an event to the server. I simply ran the example code and was seeing the "Too many messages" error. I guess I don't really see the benefit of using the setInterval in the example? I initially thought it was needed for the sdk to work properly which isn't the case

Sorry, just re-read your response and must have missed the last sentence. Thanks!
