I tried to engage with the API team via Twitter but I've not had a response and development is grinding to a halt here...
In short I keep getting a 429 when developing against the OneNote API, I know that this suggests I'm hitting the API too hard, but I'm not.
At worst I'm doing maybe 1 or 2 requests per minute, manually invoked by me as I develop. Sometimes I'll leave it 10-15 minutes between calls, sometimes this works, sometimes not.
I've been working on a particular problem the last few days. In my code I make a call to get all notebooks, sections & section groups in a single query (filtered to only return data from certain notebooks)
I then make a second call to get all updated pages for those notebooks. I've been fiddling with the filter string to get this second call working (which I now think I have), but 9 times out of 10 I get the 429 on this second API call.
Is there some way of getting my user account whitelisted please?
FWIW this is my second query (the spaces normally get encoded):
/me/notes/pages?count=true&top=100&expand=parentNotebook,parentSection
&filter=(parentNotebook/id eq '{GUID}' or parentNotebook/id eq '{GUID}' or parentNotebook/id eq '{GUID}') and lastModifiedTime gt 2016-08-05T11:34:09.000Z
This does work as I'd expect, the date clause is working now, but I can only test very occasionally as I get the 429.
Incidentally if I run my second filter through the API console I get a 504 "Proxy request timeout", every time. This has been since I've added the parenthesis around the notebook predicate.
So I'm pretty much unable to continue development, how do I resolve this please?
