I cannot find site_settings.yml to adjust my instance rate limits? [Screenshot 2025-02-19 at 12.49.00 PM]

Hey, you need to edit your app.yml config file, see the guide here: Available settings for global rate limits and throttling .

So I tried setting the rate limits extremely high and still the USER API rate limits are triggering only with a few actions. Here is my app.yml values: [Screenshot 2025-02-19 at 5.36.24 PM] Where can I find all the logs for all rate limits so I can see which rate limit is being triggered, if it …

The errors above only happen when I am logged in. If I am not logged in then there is no limit at all, I can do anything and view as many profiles and stuff as fast as possible without any errors. When I log in and authorize access with user API key then it starts limiting after like a few actions

[image] Josh U: Here is my app.yml values: First, make sure you properly indent the lines. It should be at the same level as the # character. Otherwise, there is a chance it won’t work.
