I'm leaning towards B as well. The rate limit makes the most sense to me. Although, I did hear a rumor that the Meraki API has a secret 'Unlimited Mode' if you sacrifice a goat to the networking gods. Worth a try, right?

Haha, I bet it's not D. The device going offline while polling the API? That's just asking for trouble! I'm going with B, the rate limit seems like the most logical explanation here.

I'm going with C. The API key could have expired, and that would definitely cause issues when trying to access the Meraki dashboard. Gotta stay on top of those API key renewals!

I think the error is caused by the rate limit of the Cisco Meraki API being exceeded.
