Limitations to calls

Open devaffair opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

Are there any limitations for the calls I make? Will iCloud block me after a certain number of calls?

Thanks!

Most likely. I'd be really surprised if they wouldn't block you after absurdly high requests/second. I'd assume 10/minute is fine. I'd worry if you request 100/minute or 1000/minute.

very cool project here. Has anyone been able to confirm any sort of rate limiting in effect? I'm also wondering if the 'block' (if imposed) would block the apple ID initiating the request, all the devices in the family sharing 'group' (I was surprised and pleased to find that all the devices in family sharing have their data available when using this). I'm at every 15 mins now but definitely want to fly 'under the radar' and not get flagged by Appl.
