Hello experts! I am using the cloudflare API to install domains/zones for my clients with hundreds of domain names. After about 500 API calls over 10 minutes I get a 429 Response and then I have to wait an hour or more to run them again.
The current API limit is somewhere in the ballpark of 1200 calls per 5 minutes, I am way under that and seem to be running into a 429 error still.
Some of my clients have over 600 domain names, and this would take 5 hours to install with the current limitations within the API. I have it set to 6 calls every 30 seconds to process this volume without running into the 429 error.
I run a jump_start, then get the zone ID, then set 4 DNS records. I should not be triggering a rate limit at all. 12 API calls per minute does not seem to be correct. I also make sure all Name Servers are changed prior to installation.
Can someone assist me here with some guidance.

Thanks in advance experts.
