laravel:rate-limiting

Per-user rate limiting in Laravel is configured using the RateLimiter facade within RouteServiceProvider, allowing you to define limits based on user IDs or IP addresses to prevent API abuse. You then apply the throttle middleware to protected routes.

Yes, route-based throttling can be applied across public APIs and admin dashboards in Laravel by attaching the throttle middleware to specific routes. This protects endpoints from burst traffic and prevents abusive API calls.

The best way to limit API calls per route is using Laravel's throttle middleware combined with the RateLimiter facade. This approach limits traffic on specific protected endpoints and handles scenarios with burst traffic effectively.

Laravel's throttle middleware handles burst traffic by enforcing per-user and per-route API call limits on protected endpoints. It uses the RateLimiter to track requests by user ID or IP address, blocking excessive calls while preserving normal user experience.

Yes, you need Laravel's RateLimiter to configure per-user API rate limits. The Skill requires the RateLimiter component and the by() method to identify users via their IDs or IP addresses, applying limits through the standard throttle middleware.
