Can I use the API key from a different Reuters account?

When I get the "too many request error...try again in *** seconds" , would it be possible to 'borrow' the API key from a different Reuters account and recover the capability to download data? If yes , do I need to log-in into the new account or the new API key is enough?

Hi @davide.costanzo

The API key is for logging purpose only.

It does not give you more requests per API key.
