Syncovery Support Forum

Hello everyone,

I have a profile running for 2 weeks that daily uploads a single .bak file of almost 700GB to Google Drive (an Enterprise Shared Drive, with unlimited space).
The profile failed today (for the 2nd time), returning error 403 Forbidden:
"domain": "usageLimits",
"reason": "userRateLimitExceeded",
"message": "User rate limit exceeded."

Is there any specific configuration I need to do in Syncovery to prevent this from happening?

Attached I send the profile execution log (omitting only personal information).

The origin server, where the profile is running, is a VM hosted on Google Compute Engine, the average transfer speed during the execution of this profile is 36MB / s, and it usually takes about 5 to 6 hours to complete.

Doing some google searches I found in this link (https://developers.google.com/drive/api ... dle-errors) the information that suggests "request additional quota in developer console project", "exponential backoff", etc. But these are things that are beyond my comprehension.

Hello,
this just means that you have reached your personal daily upload limit. You need to upload less. Contact Google to enquire more details.

Hi Tobias,

Thanks for the answer.
I researched a little bit about "daily upload limit on google drive" and really, there is a limitation of 750GB per user. Sad.

Unfortunately uploading less will be a problem, as we have other profiles that copy other important files to google drive. The sum of these files exceeds 750GB.

This limitation is "per user", so a simple solution would be to use different users in different profiles.
I managed to configure each profile with a different google account (the "Account opt" field made this trick).
I will perform the tests and in the future I share here if it worked.

Hi Tobias,

Just sharing the result: The profiles ran this morning and it worked!

We were able to upload approximately 950GB to Google Drive, taking care to use different accounts in each profile.

So here's a tip for anyone facing a similar situation.
