Rate limit on https://api.magicbell.com/ws/auth

[schmidti159]

Hi,

during testing we ran into some rate limit for the URL https://api.magicbell.com/ws/auth:

We could not find any information about rate limits for this api. We only found documentation about the rate limit for https://api.magicbell.com/v2: https://www.magicbell.com/docs/api#rate-limits

So please clarify:

1. What is the current limit for the /ws api?
2. What is it based on (e.g. IP address, X-Magicbell-Api-Key, X-Magicbell-User-External-Id, ...)?

Thank you!

Hey @schmidti159 thajk you for trying out MagicBell and sorry about that.

The rate limit, for web-socket is harmless, but annoying. However, you are using a deprecated version of the Inbox which in turn uses a deprecated API version.

The latest version is documented at https://www.magicbell.com/docs/libraries/magicbell-react

Amongst other things, it uses a different web-socket implementation that completely avoids the need for the rate limit.
