I am uploading photos to Google Photos and placing them in Albums via the Photos Library API. Every now and then, I get an error "Quota exceeded for quota metric 'Write requests' and limit 'Write requests per minute per user' of service 'photoslibrary.googleapis.com' for consumer 'project_number:XXXXXXX'.

The documentation states 10,000 requests per project per day. But then it says In addition to these limits there are other quotas that exist to protect the reliability and integrity of our systems. I am assuming it's referring to the "per minute per user" that I am receiving.

So what is the actual limit? How many times can I call the API per minute?

P.S. There is a API quote page for Google Sheets API, which states that the limit is 60 requests per minute. Does that limit also apply to other Google APIs?

P.P.S. There is a similar question from 2018, but the issue was too much bandwidth - doesn't apply to my situation.
