Could anyone explain why I get this error on all of my cloud functions? This account was created with a Coursera feature code as part of a certification course. The IBM instructors told me to open a support ticket, but because its a Lite account, IBM support wont answer any questions. If anyone here can help, id greatly appreciate it. Im almost done the final project and this issue is holding up me finishing the course. 

Thank you, 

Ernest

Error:

Results: { "code": "b90433a23cb5e6268cc1f132de1075cc", "error": "Too many requests in the last minute (count: 1, allowed: 0)." } Logs: No logs yet.

Hi Ernest, did you manage to solve that issue ?

No I did not. It looks like a larger problem that is affecting multiple students and the instructors with cognitiveclass haven't resolved the issue. I was offered a convoluted way to self host the functions in the cognitiveclass lab environment, but that seems like it will only cause issues with the peer grading process. My solution was to swipe the credit card and upgrade to a pay-as-you-go account. Im keeping an eye on the utilization to hopefully keep myself in the free tier.

Hi Ernest, 

while IBM Cloud Functions does have a free tier, it does not offer a Lite Plan. As a result, you are not able to invoke functions from a Lite Account. You need to upgrade your account to  pay-as-you-go to be able invoke functions and consume the free tier.

Hi Marc,

This is a trial account validated using a feature code provided by cognitiveclass.ai. It is in the "Lite" support tier but it has access to all the "pay-as-you-go" features. This is my second account, my first feature code expired so I had to create a whole new account with a new email address and then cognitiveclass.ai issued me a new feature code. The original account with the first feature code worked fine. It appears to be an issue with all new accounts. Cognitiveclass has acknowledged the issue and is working to resolve it. In the meantime, I upgraded my original account to pay-as-you-go so that I could continue my final project. 

Thanks,

Ernest 

Hello Ernest and Marc,

I'm taking the same course and get the same error when create actions. I updated my account to "pay-as-you-go" but still got the error saying

 "Too many requests in the last minute (count: 1, allowed: 0)."

Do you have any hints on how to solve that issue?

Thanks!

I found out you must NOT select the DEFAULT PACKAGE - 

Rather input dealership-package

Next you should write your code and provide the API keys to params. The key value should be enclosed in double qoutes " "

Suffix .json to the final url you get after activating your web access. This will indicate to the function to respond in JSON

example: https://us-south.functions.appdomain.cloud/api/v1/web/39be9c08-31a7-4a3e-a335-594c3c696485/dealership-package/trynew.json

Contact me if you need assistance and good luck with your training. 

:-) Going through mine now!
