I am creating live streams on the go using Wowza Cloud Stream REST API. Everything working fine except that sometime we are getting “Limit Reached Error”. I don’t know what is the maximum limit for creating live streams and how to handle this kind of issues/errors ?

Following is the full response we got from the API:

[meta] => stdClass Object ( [status] => 409 [code] => ERR-409-LimitReached [title] => Limit Reached Error [message] => You’ve reached the maximum number of stream targets that can be added in a three-hour period. You can add more at 10 April 2017 09:15 AM UTC. If you need to create more targets sooner than that, contact Support. [description] => [links] => Array ( ) )

I’m really interested in this limit too. Are you using a developer license or a full license?

If this is a limit on the full license I’m really interested in what limits wowza enforces.

Hello Ben,

These are relating to safeguards put in place to prevent excessive API calls. If you anticipate that you will be making more calls than the default limit then please open a support ticket with details about the type and volume of API calls you expect to make and we will try our best to accommodate you.

Regards,

Paul

Hey Paul,

Where can I find documentation on the default limits for Wowza Cloud?
