Rate limiting is a critical technique employed in many Objective-C applications to control the number of requests a user or client can make within a specific time period. It helps prevent abuse, ensures fair usage of resources, and maintains application stability. Monitoring when a user is being rate-limited is crucial to identify potential issues, ensure the proper functioning of your application, and provide a smooth user experience.
Saashound, a powerful real-time event tracking tool, offers seamless monitoring for rate limiting in your Objective-C application. By integrating Saashound directly into your application, you can effortlessly track when users are being rate-limited in real-time and receive immediate alerts when rate-limiting events occur.
To begin monitoring rate limiting for users in your Objective-C application using Saashound, follow these simple steps:
Integrating Saashound into your Objective-C application is straightforward. Use the following code snippet to start tracking rate-limiting events for users. Remember to replace API_TOKEN
with your actual Saashound API token and update the project name to match your project.
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
void logEvent() { NSURL *apiURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"https://api.saashound.co/log-event"];
NSDictionary *payload = @{ @"project": @"my-project", @"channel": @"user-activity", @"event": @"User Rate Limited", @"description": @"User ID 12345 is being rate-limited.", @"icon": @"⏳", @"notify": @YES // Replace with the appropriate value };
NSData *jsonData = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:payload options:0 error:nil];
NSMutableURLRequest *request = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:apiURL]; [request setHTTPMethod:@"POST"]; [request setValue:@"application/json" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Content-Type"]; [request setValue:@"Bearer API_TOKEN" forHTTPHeaderField:@"Authorization"]; [request setHTTPBody:jsonData];
NSURLSessionDataTask *task = [[NSURLSession sharedSession] dataTaskWithRequest:request completionHandler:^(NSData *data, NSURLResponse *response, NSError *error) { NSHTTPURLResponse *httpResponse = (NSHTTPURLResponse *)response; if (httpResponse.statusCode >= 200 && httpResponse.statusCode < 300) { NSLog(@"Log event sent successfully!"); } else { NSLog(@"Failed to send log event. Response code: %ld", (long)httpResponse.statusCode); } }];
[task resume];}
int main(int argc, const char * argv[]) { @autoreleasepool { logEvent(); } return 0;}
