      We’re integrating FusionAuth into our system but are running into rate limiting and CAPTCHA challenges that are blocking our progress during login testing. Is there a way to temporarily increase rate limits to avoid these issues during integration, or is self-hosting FusionAuth the only alternative?

        These challenges are expected because of the security protections in place on FusionAuth Cloud deployments. One option is indeed to self-host FusionAuth, which gives you full control over rate limits and CAPTCHA settings.

        Alternatively, you could add your IP address to FusionAuth’s allowlist, which can exempt you from certain rate limits and CAPTCHA checks. Details on this approach and the requirements are documented here:
