Rate limiting issues arise from exceeding the configured rate limits, high traffic volume from a single source, or misconfigured rate limiting policies. Review your application's traffic patterns and Cloudflare dashboard to identify potential bottlenecks. Adjust rate limiting policies or implement traffic shaping techniques as needed. Investigate if upstream services are also experiencing issues.
