I was in the middle of adding a shared environment variable and the screen started showing a 404 error screen. I then returned to the dashboard, clicked "Continue with Github", and now see Error 1015 You are being rate limited. I gave it ~1 hr and still seeing the error. Is there a way to determine why I'm being rate limited?

I'd love to know what happened to cause the Railway dashboard to be inaccessible for an hour
Update: I updated one more shared environment variable and am now rate limited again.

can you please provide reproducible steps
Sure. See below:
- Go to Railway Project Settings (from railway.com/dashboard)
- Click Shared Variables
- Add a new Shared Variable (rate limiting is triggered here)
- Screen switches to 404
- Click "Go Home" button
- Log in with Github
- Redirected to rate limited page

question, how many envs do you have? includeing any pr envs if you have them too?

looks like we make 2x requests for every environment you have when setting that variable, and the cloudflare limit is 50 rps, so that explains that
So the fix is to remove the Dependabot PR envs (deleting or merging the PR), and then try again, yeah?

how many non Dependabot prs do you have?

okay then you should be safe setting shared variables with only 8 envs

so update here, half of the issue has been fixed, adding a variable will not spam call the api, but opening the shared variables tab will still one time spam the api, but i have also ticketed that
Wow. Thank you. I'm amazed by the quick turnaround and commitment to continuous improvement. 🥇
