Hi,

{
"code" : 403,
"errors" : [ {
"domain" : "global",
"message" : "Quota Error: User Rate Limit Exceeded.",
"reason" : "userRateLimitExceeded"
} ],
"message" : "Quota Error: User Rate Limit Exceeded."
}

I am receiving this message when I am trying to fetch profiles of a user. I want to know if this is application level rate limit or global level (domain is global in message) rate limit? Also, how can I overcome this? I have tried this multiple times and did not work every time. This seems to be only associated with a particular profile as I am able to fetch for other profiles.

Please help.

Take a look at the developer console and see what the QPS is set to. You can set it up to 10 QPS
You should take a look at how your code is structured. If you are making API calls in a for loop you could very easily hit the QPS  limit. You might want to try to make use of Batching, where applicable.
