429 Rate limit exceeded

[Hauerli]

HI all,

i lately experience the issue that if i try to create some jira-issues via api that i receive the error message "429 rate limit exceeded" wich is blocking the process of creating further issues.

is there a way to define/overwrite the own session as it is done in the example below from ATC ?

topic is described here:
https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rate-limiting/

for ATC there is a solution but this does not seem to work for jira-python api

creds = _get_credential(USER)
atc = Confluence(
    url=CONFLUENCE["URL"],
    username=creds.username,
    password=creds.password,
    session=SESSION,
)

log = logging.getLogger(__name__)

class CustomSession(Session):
    def __init__(self) -> None:
        super().__init__()
        # Disable all cookies for our session, because the the x-rate-limit headers will not be sent otherwise
        self.cookies.set_policy(BlockAll())

    def send(self, request: PreparedRequest, **kwargs) -> Response:

        # log.debug(f"send - {request.method} {request.url}")

        response = super().send(request, **kwargs)

        remaining = response.headers.get("X-RateLimit-Remaining")
        if remaining is not None and int(remaining) == 0:
            # Obervation: Sometimes the interval is not enough, so we have to wait at least 5 sec
            interval = max(int(response.headers.get("retry-after")), 5)
            log.warning(f"Rate limit reached! - ⏳ sleeping {interval}")
            time.sleep(interval)

        return response
