Rate Limit Exceeded

Cause: API rate limit has been exceeded for your account or IP address.

Suggested Action: Wait until the rate limit resets (check retry-after seconds or rate-limit-reset timestamp) before making more requests. Consider implementing exponential backoff in your client.

Common Scenarios:

• Making more than 10 requests per minute to any endpoint
• Exceeding daily/monthly API call quotas
• Burst requests triggering temporary throttling
