Hello, I recently started sharing my application, and it has begun getting some active users. Unfortunately, due to a mistake in my implementation, a background process that fetches activity images at midnight made far more requests than expected, unintentionally exhausting my API rate limit.
I’m not entirely sure how, but within 15 minutes my app made over 10,000 Strava API read requests, even though my limit is 300 requests per 15 minutes and 3,000 daily. As a result, new users trying to log in are currently unable to sync their activities.
Is there any way to temporarily restore or adjust the rate limit so that these users can sync today while I implement a fix to prevent this from happening again?
