GetSpotPlacementScores rate limiting

Question

I am trying to get spot placement scores using AWS SDK Python client but I keep getting the following response:
```
An error occurred (MaxConfigLimitExceeded) when calling the GetSpotPlacementScores operation: You’ve exceeded your maximum allowed Spot placement configurations. You can retry configurations that you used within the last 24 hours, or wait for 24 hours before specifying a new configuration.
```
Is there some option to either increase API request quota or this service is built in such way that it can be queried once per day?

Answer

Hi,

The EC2 User Guide states the following regarding querying the Spot placement score:
> Request configurations limit – We can limit the number of new request configurations within a 24-hour period if we detect patterns not associated with the intended use of the Spot placement score feature. If you reach the limit, you can retry the request configurations that you've already used, but you can't specify new request configurations until the next 24-hour period.

For more information about the limitations, please see the docs: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/spot-placement-score.html#sps-limitations

Kind regards,
Marilyn AWS
