A Multiplayer API error, sent with HTTP 429. Status: the Multiplayer API is in private alpha; this code is part of its published contract.
When
A rate limit was hit. The answer carries retryAfterSec (also the Retry-After header) and scope, which names the limit.
What to do
Wait retryAfterSec seconds, then try again. If it keeps happening, look at what scope counts and send fewer requests.
The answer
Every error is a JSON body with a stable error code. Clients act on the codes they know and treat any other code as a failure of its HTTP status, and keep fields they do not know.
{
"error": "rate_limited",
"detail": "A sentence that is safe to show.",
"next": "Wait `retryAfterSec` seconds, then try again. If it keeps happening, look at what `scope` counts and send fewer requests.",
"docsUrl": "https://lobbylab.gg/docs/errors/rate_limited",
"retryAfterSec": 60,
"scope": "member_intents"
}This code always carries retryAfterSec and scope.
