limit change in EKION API requests

Hi there,


I have been using EIKON API for a long time with the same configuration but this noon i have received a message indicating that i am limited "for too many request" and needed to wait almost 10 hours to start sending queries again. Is there a policy change in EIKON API request frequency?

Hello @akentrader,

I do not believe you are facing a change on Eikon Data API side. Please see this previous discussion thread for details, as well as Eikon Data API Limits document for more detail. It may be helpful to analyze the request pattern to understand the cause.

Hope this information helps.
