This has been happening to me but in getuserprofile.

Sometimes it works, but mostly it’s not working.

It doesn’t even work in your own example with therock’s profile.

Get this error:

{
“error”: true,
“username”: “therock”,
“errCode”: “ERF”,
“status”: 400,
“message”: “Not Found, please check username”,
“not_found”: true
}

Despite the message saying the status is 400, it’s actually 200, so the API is being consumed everytime I get an error and it accounts to my usage

What’s going on?

Got to “getfollowing by username” method. in the endpoint tester. Enter any username and it gives you the following error:

{4 items
"id":“dragosiovan”
“error”:true
"status":400
"message":“Sorry cant find that 😦”
}

It gives the same error indifferent of what username you use. Not just for “the rock”.

Hi Dragosciovan,

Please inform the error detail for FollowingByUsername endpoint, because we just check on it, it is normal for “therock” username.
What is the username and what kind of error. You can message me privately if there is sensitive username.

For removing 1 request/second in our team still find a solution for it, but we can’t guarantee will take out the 1s limit in the future.

Please maintain your api, I have been losing clients because of this hidden error, that took me weeks to find out the cause.
