Implement Rate Limiting in Make, Zapier & n8n
The Rate Limiting (Traffic Light) API offers a simple yet effective way to control the frequency of user or automated requests in your application. By setting a unique identifier and a minimum time interval, this endpoint checks in real-time if a new action is allowed, helping you prevent abuse, manage quotas, and improve reliability across your platform.
Key Features
- Easy-to-Implement Rate Limiting: Effortlessly check if a request is allowed based on your specified cooldown.
- Customizable Intervals: Set the minimum required time (in seconds) between successful requests for any action or endpoint with a unique name.
- Real-Time Permission Check: Instantly get a simple boolean response (
ok: true/false) indicating whether the next request or operation can proceed.
Use Cases
- API Throttling: Prevent users or bots from exceeding allowed request rates on your endpoints.
- Brute Force Protection: Limit authentication or password reset attempts to safeguard user accounts.
- Spam and Abuse Prevention: Throttle form submissions, comments, or messaging to reduce spam and system load.
With the Rate Limiting (Traffic Light) endpoint, you can efficiently prevent excessive requests and maintain smooth, secure operations in any application, without complex implementation or configuration.
Benefits of the Traffic Light Endpoint
What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
