/reposts/tracks/{trackid}

It seems suddenly our app cannot rate limit ... it was always working forever :)

first did any rate limit changes occur?

we can see in the call that the return header is blocking at the cloudfront level, which doesnt tell us why or limits

Hi there,
It was never unlimited. Maybe you got lucky ;)
Our limits are documented here: https://developers.soundcloud.com/docs/api/rate-limits

Let me know the sc account that app is under (or the clinet id) and i can check the rate limit group its assigned to

[hubentom]

how can i reference you in private please , id prefer not to post our info here

[hubentom]

are you rate limiting per call as our other api seems ok at the moment... we also are not getting the response we see in these documents https://developers.soundcloud.com/docs/api/rate-limits ... its more at the cloudfront level and gives no details to us like that structure... we tried and expected something similar
