Rest API - 403 Forbidden

[svb]

I have been running C# implementation for quite some time. last night it stopped working and response is null 403 forbidden. This is on live account. Can use API to log in (rest and streaming) make calls to get watchlist epics, for example. As soon as I call to get prices (e.g. igRestApiClient.priceSearchByNumV2) I get forbidden. looking at reference I don't see forbidden with null response. any ideas as to potential cause? this is something I usually start running on Sunday night and turn off on Friday night each week. It has done this for many weeks and previously ran ok against demo. thanks

They recently reduced the limits. No idea if its temporary.

How did you find this out? I am also getting the same error.

It started just after the spam issue they had on the forums. The forum went down for a week, and the API limit decreased. A few people commented on it when the forum came back up.

If you email the support desk they have increased my limits on a temp basis in the past.
