While testing some code which uses the API, I started getting the error message "API rate limit exceeded." My company should have 10,000 API requests per month. I don't think I used more than 100 or so calls while testing. I should be able to make over 300 calls per day and not run into any limits. I need to set up a PHP script that runs nightly and updates dozens of option lists via the API, and I don't want to worry about the updates failing because of an API rate limit when I am still under 10,000 for the month. Is there something wrong with the limit on my account?

  Hi Kyle, the limit on iformbuilder.com accounts is 100 per month, with either a Free or Starter plan. You will need to upgrade to the Growing or Emerging plan to lift the 100 API request limit.

  Once you have the upgraded plan, you will be all set.

  Cheers,
  Tony

  Hi Kyle, you are still working on iFormBuilder.com and you need to migrate to your Growing account in order for the limit to be lifted
