Check on rate limit status for domain?

[jtcressy]

I’m trying to manage certificates for a domain and set of subdomains at: crl.coloradomesa.edu

I have a feeling i’ve been rate limited for the week because my storage kept failing loosing the certificates. I have it fixed now, but I want to know if it’s possible to find the status of my rate limit? I want to know when my rate limit expires so I can request a new certificate.

Hi @jtcressy,

There are several different rate limits which are described at

https://letsencrypt.org/docs/rate-limits/

The most important one is probably certificates per registered domain. There is a tool called lectl that can look up records from Certificate Transparency to show you where you stand with respect to that limit:

sahsanu/lectl

@sahsanu may add code to check for the status of the duplicate certs rate limit. In the meantime, you can get the data for yourself by searching at

https://crt.sh/?Identity=%&iCAID=16418

(put in your own domain name or a suffix of it right after the %25 in that URL, where the %25 represents the SQL wildcard “%”)

Thanks, it looks like i’ve only made one cert in the past 7 days so it seems to be something wrong with my certbot. I’m going to make sure it uses the staging api for now.
