Hi all,

We are using RC Android SDK.

The question is how do we know how many API calls will RC make to our Google API account (using the service credential that we have attached to our RC account).

The 4 APIs that we use are:
Purchases.restorePurchases()
Purchases.getProducts()
Purchases.purchase()
Purchases.getCustomerInfo()

Why is it important?
We want to scale our app and without knowing the potential usage for Google API, we are in risk on running into the limit and facing a shutdown time (which is actually happening right now to us).

Many thanks!

Hi,

Happy to help here. It’s hard to give an exact number of requests we make, but we try to keep them minimal to reduce the likelihood of hitting this limit.

We have a doc here that goes over how to reduce requests (i.e., enabled real-time notifications so that we can refresh the receipt more sparingly) and how to request a Play Store API Limit increase from Google.
