Rate Limiting Advanced: Sliding window 100 reqs per hour - Plugin

Sliding window 100 reqs per hour

Each user can make up to 100 requests every rolling hour, with the plugin continuously adjusting the count over the course of the hour. There is no hard limit or known reset.

Set up the plugin

Add this section to your declarative configuration file:

_format_version: "3.0"
