Enhancement:

Added some enhanced logging to our API to capture information on how it's used and how often calls are rejected due to throttling limits. Also added the ability to change the response code generated when a call is rejected in this way, to respond with HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) rather than HTTP 200 (OK) (23232).

Enhancement:

Several other related back-end enhancements to ensure that our API throttling mechanism is more robust and provides more useful feedback to callers when a request is rejected due to throttling (26632, 25813, 26548).

Resolved Issues

Bug fix:

Fixed a performance issue with the portion of the application responsible for building ZPL label templates. This performance bottleneck occurs when a label is requested for printing, so the improvements made here should have a direct impact on the speed of printing during despatch (20962).
