rateLimitExceeded — Rate Limit Exceeded
Too many requests in a given window.
Riposte solution
Too many requests were made in a short period. This global rate limit error suggests backing off on your API calls. Implement exponential backoff: for instance, if you're syncing or sending emails via Riposte, slow down the request rate. Riposte itself does not throttle automatically, so your app logic should handle this by delaying or batching requests.
