thanks for help

[thoukydides]

You have exceeded one of the limits listed at:
https://developer.home-connect.com/docs/general/ratelimiting

Given that the Home Connect servers have blocked further requests for 24 hours, my guess would be that it is this limit:

1000 requests per client and Home Connect user account per day
If the quota is reached, additional requests may be blocked. Thus, do not query for state information but use the monitoring function instead, and start/stop programs with care. Furthermore, only one monitoring channel per device per home appliance is allowed.

You have not provided sufficient information to determine why that rate limit might have been exceeded. There are many possible reasons, such as reading details of supported programmes when the plugin is first use, heavy use of HomeKit to control the appliances, or a dodgy internet connection. It isn't entirely unexpected.

The plugin should recover and re-establish a connection once the 24 hours expire. If that does not happen then please provide a longer log with homebridge debug enabled (using the -D command line option).

[thoukydides]

Thank you for the debug log. That confirms that the issue was, as expected:

The rate limit "1000 calls in 1 day" was reached.

It also shows that after expiry of the 24 hour period, the plugin resumed normal operation without any further errors.

Hence, unless you are still seeing issues that don't appear in the provided log, then it looks like everything is working as intended.

[thoukydides]

From the logs provided it is not possible to determine why the 1000 requests/day rate limit was exceeded. It is unlikely that anything can be done to prevent that occurring under extreme conditions (either intermittent internet connections, problems with the Home Connect servers, or excessive use of the appliances or HomeKit control).

However, the plugin appears to have handled the situation appropriately, and recovered when the 24 hour period expired.

Hence, there is no evidence of a bug in the plugin, so I am closing this issue.
