    <title>topic Re: Java API constant too_many_requests in Dropbox API Support &amp; Feedback</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;There are a number of reasons you can get a rate limiting response, e.g., due to the number of calls your app is making, or for other reasons such as other activity on the account or general Dropbox service issues.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;In any case that you do get one of these though, the best practice is to retry the request, respecting the Retry-After header/'retry_after' value, if given, or using an exponential back-off, if not.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Can you have your app automatically retry the request after the specified number of seconds? Please let me know if that does or doesn't help.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hey there,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I have a small application that does the following:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Download 2 Files locally.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Modify those 2 files programatically.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Wait 1 Minute.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Upload File 1.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Wait 1 Minute.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Upload File 2.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Usually, i do this once per day.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Although I wait 1 Minute before doing requests I still get these errors on a regular basis with the following error message:&lt;BR /&gt;com.dropbox.core.RateLimitException: {"error_summary": "too_many_requests/..", "error": {"reason": {".tag": "too_many_requests"}, "retry_after": 15}}&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;What can I do about it? As far as i know, i only make for requests?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Many thanks!&lt;/P&gt;</description>
