RateLimitError

RateLimitError

Raised on HTTP 429. This indicates that Yahoo has rate-limited the session or IP address. The recommended approach is to catch the error, wait for a period of time, and then retry or create a session using a proxy. A residential proxy is recommended to reduce the likelihood of being blocked again or to minimize the frequency of such blocks.
