    Hi,

    Let’s say you are using Cloudflare which supports rate limiting. CF7 uses feedback API for validation and when submission is successful i.e., wp-json/contact-form-7/v1/contact-forms/1234/feedback

    If setting up rate limiting for the feedback API, how can you target just the successful submission and not the validation errors? Since each feedback response counts towards the rate limit?

    The API response body has the {"status": "mail_sent"} property on a successful submission.

    I’m not familiar with Cloudflare’s rate limiting, so this reply may be irrelevant.

    Thank you, I will check how advanced the rate limiting option is and see if I can add any response body key.
