Hi guys, maybe someone can help me with this problem. It’s driving me crazy.  
I’ve connected phillips Hue (with hue bridge) to Homey cloud.  
When I try to turn on a Light in bedroom it say’s “Rate limited”. Does anyone know this isue?  
I have no Idea what to do.  
When I build a flow to activate a phillips hue scene it does turn on. But when I use the ‘turn on …’ flow card it does not work.

I just don’t get it to work.  
It did work 2 days without no problem but now there is no way I to get it working again.

That was an realy quick answer from Athom. That’s new lol 🙂  
See below, they are working on a solution:

> The rate limit issue for this app is on our radar and we are working hard on fixing it as soon as possible.

I have. The link you gave actually has that error crossed out as if it was fixed.

Yes it was fixed the next day. Since then is stated as a solved issue. When you still have the issue you can use the form mentioned earlier in the thread.

You’ll get this error only with Phillips hue devices?

Yes, but I don’t have many other devices yet. LG tv works on a basic level and it detects my soundbar fine.
