Dropbox API Support & Feedback
Find help with the Dropbox API from other developers.
Hi, we're developing (pre-production) and have DropboxRateLimitErrors on our requests. This happens more often when we try to get thumbnails for a gallery (and quickly cancelling them as user scrolls down).
It seems like the treshold of the rate limit is pretty low. What is the actual limit you guys use? Also, is this going to be different once we get approved for production?
Thanks!
Okay. I'm trying to wrap my head around to see if batching thumbnail requests solve the rate limit issue, but I guess it can't hurt. Few more questions:
1. Does dropbox library have a support for retrying 429 requests? Some configuration or retry module I can utilize?
2. Is the rate limit same before & after getting production approved?
Thanks!
