error request limit exceeded (from softr/third party site while connecting airtable )

My Airtable usage dashboard shows 881/1,000 API calls, but my third-party connection (Softr) is already returning an 'Exceeded Limit' error. Does Airtable trigger this error before the 1,000 limit is officially reached, or is there a delay in the dashboard reporting my real-time usage?

Anecdata, but I vaguely recall this taking a day to update for me so I reckon just check it again in a couple of hours and see what it says

You could be hitting the rate limit, which I believe is 5 calls/second
