Question
Can I capture the 429 error when rate limit exceeds in the Assembly in IBM API Connect?
Answer
The 429 error when rate limit exceeds in a plan can not be caught in the assembly.
You should be able to run some code in a pre or post-response extension if the response status is 429.
You can capture it with an extension.
Here the documentation DataPower extensions for IBM API Connect
These Knowledge Center pages describe DataPower extensions:
- Extending the Gateway server behavior
- Guidelines for creating a DataPower configuration that extends Gateway server behavior
- Configuring your Gateway server extensions
If you do not want to create any extension policy for this but you want to implement it in the assembly, you can vote the following existing Request for Enhancement(RFE) with RFE ID=122476.
