Paypal checkout of Gravity Form: Too many requests. Blocked due to rate limiting

I am trying to connect Wordpress Gravity Forms 2.5 with Paypal checkout.

It works when using the sandbox, but when I try to switch to live Environment, it does not work : I don't get the merchant ID and don't get the confirmation about the account status.

Enabling logging, I see this in the log file:

2021-12-31 12:13:54.141110 - ERROR --> GF_PPCP::maybe_update_credentials(): Too many requests. Blocked due to rate limiting.; PayPal Debug ID: d97d6b544747c 

'Too many requests'  sounds like I have tried too many times to connect the Paypal checkout add-on, but I actually only tried 2 times. 

Now I am stuck in an endless loop always giving the same error.

Any idea how to overcome this?

Sounds like there's some bad code causing a loop of requests to PayPal.  I would reach out to the developer of the Gravity Forms PayPal plugin you're using to see if they can help.
