From <a href="https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/security/api.html#disable-authentication">Airflow docs</a>, a few apis are experimental and need additional security like basic auth or only accept requests from trusted ips.</p>https://www.mohseen.dev/post/2021-11-15-bypass-ip-based-rate-limits/Mon, 15 Nov 2021 13:13:02 -0800https://www.mohseen.dev/post/2021-11-15-bypass-ip-based-rate-limits/<h2 id="introduction">Introduction</h2> <p>Hello! if you have been using a few public apis that rate limit your requests, this blog post might be able to help you bypass restrictions and help mask your requests using free proxies. Warning, please be aware this uses free proxies for making requests, please use more reliable proxy services or different retry methods before using in a production environment. That being said, hope this helps you if you are being blocked by you location and would need a reliable way to bypass rate limits.</p>
