Hello,
I'm having trouble communicating with M-Files DMS via REST APIs.
I generate a token from `/REST/server/authenticationtokens` using my login credentials and afterwards, I am able to communicate with the server using the generated token. But response from the server fails randomly.
For example, this is the result of 10 consecutive requests with different intervals: (on /REST/server/status endpoint)
| Run Number | Results (0.5s interval) | Results (1s interval) | Results (10s interval) |
| #1 | Forbidden | Forbidden | Success |
| #2 | Forbidden | Success | Success |
| #3 | Forbidden | Success | Success |
| #4 | Success | Forbidden | Forbidden |
| #5 | Success | Forbidden | Success |
| #6 | Success | Success | Forbidden |
| #7 | Success | Success | Success |
| #8 | Forbidden | Forbidden | Forbidden |
| #9 | Forbidden | Forbidden | Success |
| #10 | Forbidden | Success | Success |
The results show inconsistency in error response. This causes errors when integrating M-Files into our solution (because sometimes I get 3+ consecutive error responses), and if it is caused by rate limiting, this will heavily reduce the number of operations can be done by the users.
I would appreciate it if you could look into it.
Thanks,
M. M. Hejazi
