Answer 1

There was an error in the code. I had to change the following:

PageToken = changes.getNewStartPageToken();

to

pageToken = changes.getNextPageToken();

The huge amount of queries was because I was requesting on every loop a new start page token, forcing an infinite loop.

Answer 2

The error you have encountered was discussed in this guide.

Suggested actions:

• Raise the per-user quota in the Developer Console project.
• If one user is making a lot of requests on behalf of many users of a G Suite domain, consider a Service Account with authority delegation (setting the quotaUser parameter).
• Use exponential backoff.
