Rate Limit Exceeded - Too Many API Requests
API returns 429 Too Many Requests errors. Your app is making requests too quickly and hitting the rate limit.
Works initially then fails after rapid user actions.
Error Messages You Might See
429 Too Many Requests
Rate limit exceeded - retry after 60 seconds
Too many requests from this IP
API usage quota exceeded
Common Causes
- No throttling or debouncing on requests
- Multiple requests sent per keystroke (search, filter)
- Batch operations sending too many parallel requests
- Client-side retry loop without backoff
- Load testing or bot sending many requests
How to Fix It
Debounce requests: useDebounce(searchTerm, 500) for search/filter
Throttle API calls: max 1 request per X ms
Implement exponential backoff for retries: wait 1s, 2s, 4s, 8s...
Queue requests instead of parallel: process one at a time or in batches
Check API docs for rate limit: common is 100-1000 requests/minute

I've been working at a large software company named Kainos for 2 years, and mainly specialise in Platform Engineering. I regularly enjoy working on software products outside of work, and I'm a huge fan of game development using Unity. I personally enjoy Python & C# in my spare time, but I also specialise in multiple different platform-related technologies from my day job.
Caio Rodrigues
I'm a full-stack developer focused on building practical and scalable web applications. My main experience is with **React, TypeScript, and modern frontend architectures**, where I prioritize clean code, component reusability, and maintainable project structures.
I have strong experience working with **dynamic forms, state management (Redux / React Hook Form), and complex data-driven interfaces**. I enjoy solving real-world problems by turning ideas into reliable software that companies can actually use in their daily operations.
Beyond coding, I care about **software quality and architecture**, following best practices for componentization, code organization, and performance optimization.
I'm also comfortable working across the stack when needed, integrating APIs, handling business logic, and helping transform prototypes into production-ready systems.
My goal is always to deliver solutions that are **simple, efficient, and genuinely useful for the people using them.**

Get HelpFrequently Asked Questions
How do I know the rate limit?
Check API docs or response headers: X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining
What's debounce vs throttle?
Debounce: waits for pause then fires (search). Throttle: fires max every X ms (scroll)
Should I implement retry logic?
Yes, with exponential backoff. Don't retry immediately - wait 1s then 2s then 4s
