I want to implement a rate limit on a service based on the user, e.g., one user can execute a service five times within 60 seconds.

How can we implement the same in vConnect?

In Rate limit, we can configure the limit on either App level or Service Level.

App Level - To configure the rate limit at the app level, you add a rule to the application. When you add a rule, you define the number of requests that the API gateway processes during a specified time.

Service Level - You can also configure the rate limit at the service level. When you configure the rate limit at the service level, you can add a dedicated rule to each of the services.

Note : Rate limits can be defined at each level with App level taking the highest priority.

Thanks for the update, but I asked how we can configure it at the user level.
