Googleapi: Error 403: User Rate Limit Exceeded
Issue with Google Docs API: "(403) User rate limit exceeded" error won’t go away after days — any advice?
Videos
Hey all, I’ve been facing a persistent issue using the Google Docs API through Make and I’m hoping someone else has been through this.
Last Friday (3 days ago), my scenario failed with the error [403] User rate limit exceeded.
It uses the “Create Document from Template” module, which replaces some placeholders (e.g. {{refNo}}, {{name}}, etc.). The document is automatically saved in Google Drive.
The scenario ran twice – The first run was successful, but the second run encountered the error [403] User rate limit exceeded.
I waited for the entire weekend without running anything in hopes of any relevant quotas imposed by Google being refreshed over time.
I did a simple test scenario today (Monday) and it still throws the same error [403] User rate limit exceeded when I do anything involving Google Docs (Create Document, Get Content, Download file, etc.). I can use the Google Sheets modules and Google Drive modules (except download a Google Doc) without any errors. I also checked the Google Cloud Platform quotas section, but:
I didn’t see anything that looked like I exceeded any limits (everything is at 0% usage),
… or maybe I just don’t know where to look as I am not very familiar with GCP.
Could my account have been silently throttled, or is there something else I might have missed? Any help or experience would be appreciated. Thanks!
Edit:
I tried looking at the API page but it shows that my usage is at 0%.
(Although I'm not sure if this is the correct page)
