Hi all,
Currently I create a mediawiki website.
For the API request, I want to add some limit such as 1000 per day per
developer,etc.
I find 3scale provides this service, but I have some problems to deploy it.
Do I really need 3rd-party service to add limit to mediawiki?
If so, how can I change the API url, for me, I want to change it from
example.com/w/api.php to api.example.com
Thanks
Best,
John
Due to a security issue,[1] the deprecated "gettoken" parameter to
action=block and action=unblock has been removed. Clients should use
action=tokens to fetch tokens of types "block" or "unblock" instead.
This also applies to the security release 1.21.2.

Hello.
I'm Jong Beom Kim, web search product manager of Naver Corporation(www.naver.com)
Please, check the robots rule issues
=====================================================
We offer search results by collecting the data of Wikipedia.
However, transmitting data by dumping is not satisfy freshness,
so we want to collect the data by API( https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API) ) for freshness.
Your sites robots rules are restricting our API access(/w/api.php)
Therefore, YETI(Naver Corporation Web Robot Crawler) would collect the data by API ignoring "robots.txt'
If the above method is not allowed, can you tell us the correct process and policy of access?
I will wait for your guidance about policy and process of collecting data.
==========================================
Best regards.
Thanks
