🚨 Error 429: Too Many Requests
Seeing this error on your website?
It means the server or an application has received more requests than the configured limit allows.
🔍 Common causes:
• Too many requests from a single IP
• Automated bots or repeated API calls
• Rate-limiting or security rules
• Sudden traffic spikes
✅ What should you check?
• Check access logs for repeated requests or unusual traffic.
• Identify the source IPs and user agents generating requests.
• Review rate-limiting rules and request thresholds.
• Check CDN, firewall, or security settings.
Verify whether legitimate users or automated bots are triggering the limit.
💡 Quick tip: Don’t increase limits blindly. Find what’s causing the traffic first, then decide what setting to change.
