Verified issue does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

What happened?

When the server returns status code 429 Too Many Requests, a message is shown that Sync failed encouraging the user to open a GitHub issue with a bug report.

We had problems syncing your changes. Please report this as a bug by opening a Github issue.

When a 429 Too Many Requests status code is returned, it's not an error, a different error message should be shown "Could not sync due to too many requests, please try again later." or something similar.

How can we reproduce the issue?

I don't know why the too many requests issue showed up. But Actual seems to be spamming various endpoints.

Just spoof a 429 response and you'll see the message appear.

Where are you hosting Actual?

Pikapods

What browsers are you seeing the problem on?

Chrome

Operating System

Mac OSX

I can't replicate the 429 organically, do you have any network logs showing what endpoints are being spammed?

I also cannot reproduce it, that's why I suggest changing the error message at least.
