I’m getting rate_limit_error
on the API when posting posts with just title+url. What is the default rate limit for posts? Do all requests have a rate limit or only posts?
Can I get the rate limit from an instance with a request to the API?
Edit:
{
"local_site_rate_limit": {
"id": 1,
"local_site_id": 1,
"message": 180,
"message_per_second": 60,
"post": 6,
"post_per_second": 600,
"register": 3,
"register_per_second": 3600,
"image": 6,
"image_per_second": 3600,
"comment": 6,
"comment_per_second": 600,
"search": 60,
"search_per_second": 600,
"published": "2023-02-05T03:52:36.832982"
}
}
I’m getting limit rate with a 10 second delay so 1/post_per_second = 0,0016
seconds / post delay is not right. So what do those even mean and what is the delay I should have between posts?
This bit me too.
How I believe you would read it for posts, using the values you posted, is “6 posts are allowed every 600 seconds”. The variables are poorly named IMO.
Following those rules, my own application seemed to stop getting rate limited.
