We have a unique product update this week. Infoplus launched API Rate Limiting, which is slowly rolling out to users over the course of the next week as well as a new integration with shipping service eHub. Don’t forget that API V3 is now available for all Infoplus users! Continue reading to learn more about these updates and how they impact Infoplus users.
Last Reminder! Rate Limiting will go into effect next week.
Rate Limiting in Infoplus means if a call to the API exceeds 20 calls per second per user, a 429 error will occur. Rate Limiting will provide a more stable version of the Infoplus software by ensuring scripts that hit an error state do not run on repeat and overload the API affecting all Infoplus users and sites.
Please note that unless you exceed the limit of 20 calls per second per user, you will not notice any changes to your API in Infoplus. If you do encounter the 429 error, you can reach out to Infoplus Support or wait until the limit resets. If you’re consistently hitting this error, consider spacing out the API requests.
Infoplus is proud to introduce a new partnership with shipping service eHub.
The Infoplus/eHub integration will connect users to the eHub services, which can offer enormous savings on shipping costs. eHub has launched its integration with Infoplus in a Beta mode, which will test the integration for any bugs or flaws. After this Beta period, eHub (and all the cost savings associated with using the service) will be available to all Infoplus users.
Here are some of the benefits of working with eHub:
