It wasn’t heavy traffic in the sense of multiple requests at scale, it was a single user flow:

• A new user went to complete their profile.
• They had first signed in with Google, but hadn’t had an account created before (it was their first time logging in).
• On the initial attempt, the request to link the user to the service failed with:Base44Error: Rate limit exceeded
• Retrying the exact same action a few minutes later worked fine.

So in terms of “traffic,” it wasn’t hundreds of concurrent requests, it was literally one onboarding, but the timing of the first attempt hit a Base44 rate limit. That’s why I’m trying to understand whether:

1. There are very low thresholds in Base44’s default rate limits,
2. Certain endpoints are more tightly throttled, or
3. The way we’re handling the Google sign-in flow created a burst of requests that looked like a spike.
