I created a sandbox Weaviate instance and quickly hit my sandbox rate limit, so I upgraded to a paid plan, though I still get: “update vector: Weaviate embed API error: 429 Daily sandbox request limit exceeded. Please try again tomorrow.” I was not aware of such a limit existing and it kind of defeats the purpose (I have a big database that does not change frequently but should not be limited by an API rate limit as long as the package is nowhere near its limits…) What do I do? ---
