Lightsail web portal throwing 400 error

Question

When I log into https://lightsail.aws.amazon.com/  
  
It's throwing this error:  
  
400 Bad Request  
Request Header Or Cookie Too Large  
Server  
  
What's going on with LightSail? How do I fix this access the server configurations?  
  
On the same note, I've seen other errors in the past when logging into LightSail (including something about API limit exceeded??) Is LightSail a reliable option to run servers?  
  
OS: Windows 10 64bit 20H2  
Browser: Chrome 64bit latest version

Answer

I don't know why it happened, but clearing the cookies seem to resolve this issue. If anyone has any insight into this (and my other question about reliability API limits error when logging into the web portal) it would be appreciated.

Answer

Heh, flashback to my days as a volunteer on AOL telling everyone to clear their cash and delete cookies.

Answer

Thanks for the clarification.   
  
The APi error happened as soon as I logged into the lightsail console web portal. I didn’t refresh the page.

Answer

Regarding the "Request Header Or Cookie Too Large" issue: we've verified the problem and are currently working on a fix. In the meantime, you can clear your cookies or switch to another browser if you continue to experience this issue.  
  
Regarding the "API limit exceeded" errors: this error may occur if you rapidly refresh the page (assuming you're seeing this error on the Lightsail console). This error happens when your API request rate exceeds the rate allowed by Lightsail, and does not mean that the service is unavailable.
