What does "Xero API call rate exceeded" mean?

Xero has set a limit for how many times we can call its API. When this limit is reached, the error message "Xero API call rate exceeded" appears.
​
In this case, you’ll need to wait until it’s gone.

  • If the error is HTTP TooManyRequests - Too many requests in the last minute (minute), you need to wait a few minutes before retrying your actions

  • If the error is HTTP TooManyRequests - Too many requests in the last day (day), you need to wait 24 hours before attempting further synchronization
    ​​Note: it is advised to disconnect the organization for at least 24h to ensure the API rate limit will not be constantly exceeded.
