i'm using the python imgur client to do some uploads but i'm getting
ImgurClientRateLimitError: Rate-limit exceeded!
I've done nowhere near 500 api requests an hour and this is what my current credits look like:
{ u'ClientLimit': 12500,
u'ClientRemaining': 12500,
u'UserLimit': 500,
u'UserRemaining': 500,
u'UserReset': 1429698684
}
I've gone over the docs here https://api.imgur.com/#limits but can't find anything to indicate why i would be getting rate limit error.
Does anyone know why i'm getting this?
my specific upload call looks like
x = imgur_client.upload_from_url(url, config=None, anon=True)
-------- update -----
Here's screenshots of stats in mashape. i don't see how i could possibly be anywhere near the limit.
For those encountering this, the solution is to make sure you send your mashape key in your HTTP headers.
At the time i made this post, it wasn't supported in the default imgur python library but it is now.
