Blink integration seems to be inconsistent and giving possibly down or throttled error

Third party integrations

Hi, New HA user here, been on a steep learning curve this week but I seem to be getting there. One integration that I can’t seem to to get to work consistently is Blink. I have one blink account, 2 sync modules and 3 cameras. Here is my HA info, running on a pi using docker
System Health

arch armv7l
dev false
docker true
hassio false
installation_type Home Assistant Container
os_name Linux
os_version 4.19.66-v7+
python_version 3.8.5
timezone Europe/London
version 0.115.0
virtualenv false

The integration connect and sets up fine and all the sensors seem to report correctly but when I issue arm and disarm commends in automatons, via call_service, it rarely works, I get a better hit rate using the button in the UI but it still doesn’t always work. I have also reduced the refresh internal to 1800sec and put delays between commands but that didn’t help. The error I get is below and any pointers would be appreciated

Here is the error:
Logger: blinkpy.auth

Many Thanks Pete

Ok so I have upgraded to v0.115.5 and with half hours testing it seems to be more stable but
it is still showing the error in the logs so I’m not convicted and will see how it goes…

Unfortunately it is still happening :frowning: If anyone has any ideas

Hi all, this is still happening so I have had to revert to IFTTT and set up multiple accounts to keep my Blink automations working. Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing the “possible throttled” error please? Blink is the only integration that I haven’t managed to get to work reliably. Thanks
