RateExceededError after a few operations

[Alexandra Faynburd]

Hi,

I'm getting the error after running tens or maybe low hundreds of operations (at least I think that this is the number)

I'm getting this error

googleads.errors.GoogleAdsServerFault: [RateExceededError <rateName=OperationsPerDay, rateKey=basic_access_operations, rateScope=DEVELOPER, retryAfterSeconds=86400>]

The rate is 10000 per day

How can I check what is the actual number of operations I did, and how can I eliminate this situation?

Thanks

Alexandra

Hi Alexandra,

Unfortunately, there is currently no way to know how many requests your account has made for the day. However, you could refer to the rate sheet guide on how the operations are computed. According to this guide, the rateScope=DEVELOPER means that the requests you make is most likely associated with that developer token. If the combined QPS for all client requests using the same developer token exceeds a certain rate limit, then RateExceededError may be returned indicating Developer Rate Scope. 

For you to continue making API service calls, you could wait for the next day to reset the OperationsPerDay of your account. However, if you think that you will encounter this more often, I would suggest you to apply for Standard Access as this will give you unlimited operations per day. You may fill up this form if you wish to apply for Standard Access.
