Use Redis to Rate-Limit Your Low-Code API
This workflow demonstrates how to use Redis to implement rate limits to your API.  The workflow uses the incoming API key to uniquely identify the user and uses it as a key in Redis. Every time a request is made, the value is incremented by one, and we check for the threshold using the IF node. Duplicate the following Airtable to try out the workflow: https://airtable.com/shraudfG9XAvqkBpF
