We're making several improvements to how quotas work for Development Mode apps and increasing the app limit to 25 to give developers more flexibility.

• Client ID limit increased from 1 to 25 per developer account.
• Quota counting is now per developer account, not per Client ID. All your Development Mode Client IDs share a single quota.
• It's easier to distinguish quota limits from rate limits with a reason field in the error response.

You can now create up to 25 Client IDs per developer account to better help you organize your projects the way you want.

Previously, the API quota for Development Mode was counted per app. Going forward, the quota is counted per developer account. If you have multiple apps in Development Mode, the quota for all of those apps is shared under a single budget.

We’re making it easier to distinguish quota limits from rate limits. When your quota is exceeded, the 429 Too Many Requests response now returns a structured JSON body with a "reason": "QUOTA_EXCEEDED" field.

• Handle the new 429 body. Use the reason field to distinguish quota limits from rate limits and pace your usage accordingly.
• Shared quota across apps. If you use multiple Development Mode Client IDs, be aware they now draw from the same quota pool.
