Hello Visual Studio Marketplace Support Team,
I am experiencing an issue with my Visual Studio Marketplace Publisher account and need your help investigating it.
I recently published a VS Code extension through the Visual Studio Marketplace Publisher portal by manually uploading a VSIX package.
The extension appeared to be published successfully. However, shortly after the publication, I became unable to access my Marketplace account.
Current behavior:
1. I can successfully sign in with my Microsoft account.
2. Immediately after authentication, I am redirected to an HTTP 429 error page.
3. The error message is:
"429 - Woah, that's a lot of requests"
"You might be blocked due to the number of requests exceeding our rate threshold."
4. I can no longer access the Publisher management portal.
5. The public Marketplace page for the extension is also no longer accessible.
Extension information:
Publisher ID:
tosslib-tools
Extension ID:
tosslib-tools.tosslib-tool
Extension identifier:
tosslib-tools.tosslib-tool

Activity ID:
8e12dd6f-1131-4b5e-b12e-48768ba5612d
Publishing method:
Manual VSIX upload through the Visual Studio Marketplace web portal
I did not use "vsce publish" or an automated CI/CD publishing workflow.
Could you please investigate the status of my Publisher account and extension?
In particular, could you please confirm:
1. Whether my Visual Studio Identity (VSID) has been temporarily rate-limited or blocked due to a Concurrency restriction.
2. Whether the Publisher "tosslib-tools" is currently suspended, restricted, or blocked.
3. Whether the extension "tosslib-tools.tosslib-tool" has been hidden, unpublished, suspended, or removed from the Marketplace.
4. If this is a VSID Concurrency/rate-limit issue, could you please clear the restriction or let me know when it will automatically expire?
5. If the extension or Publisher was restricted due to a Marketplace policy or security review, could you please provide the specific reason and the steps required to resolve the issue?
I have stopped attempting to publish the extension or repeatedly access the Marketplace to avoid causing additional rate-limit requests.
This issue is blocking me from managing my Publisher account and accessing my published extension.
I would appreciate it if you could investigate this issue and help restore access to my Publisher account and extension.
Thank you for your assistance.
