Hi Kelly, If you get a RateExceededError from sandbox, you need to handle it just like the way you would handle in production - wait for retryAfterSeconds and then try again. Since sandbox is not designed for load testing, you will get RateExceededError more frequently in sandbox than in production. but if you are getting it very frequently, you might want to take another look at your application design. If you need to do that, please share additional details on this thread and I'll help you out.
