I am getting some random ERROR Code 221's from the API, but the API Key is in fact valid. Sometimes will occur for a single API key, or it will be a batch of 3 or 4 at a time. It will happen for APIKEYINFO or for SKILLINTRAINING. Just appears to be random.

I don't know why its happening and I know its not related to my script. Wondering if anyone else is getting random Error Code 221's ?

Yep, get a few of them each week, random keys, random endpoints. And they come back with a 24-hour cache timer, which my code honours; which can be a bit inconvenient particularly on things like the Industry jobs API which I want to be quite up to date.

Exact same issue, its really odd, would like to get it sorted somehow, as my system also honors cache's.

Well ****. I have this on my list of things to investigate. I took a look through our logs though and actually didn't see anything with a 221 error code, doesn't mean it wasn't there just not in the access logs I looked at. I will have a look at the error logs when I get a chance. If you come up with anything else relating to this let me know. :)

I can give you the access time the requests were sent if it helps and any other info you may need. I can also see about the raw http data received next time it happens.

This is the cached response received for a CharacterSheet request:

The credentials, such as API Key, VCode and Character ID are sent, just removed for privacy :)
