Best practices to prevent hitting your API request limit
To help prevent errors caused by hitting the API limit, consider:
Shortening the time frame used on the affected widgets. For example, if you have the time period set as Last 30 days, try setting it to Last 7 days.
Reducing the number of custom filters on the affected widgets. Fetching data for custom filters consumes a lot of API requests as we need to collect all of the information and then filter it.
Adding the High Volume API Add-On to your Zendesk account. Available for Professional and Enterprise plans, choose this option if you need to preserve the existing settings on those affected widgets.
