JetBackup-Queries per minute per user (Google Drive)

Jetbackup Error
Hello, we are backing up our web server to Google Drive using Jetbackup. We are frequently getting the error:

"[ERROR] Quota exceeded for quota metric 'Queries' and limit 'Queries per minute per user' of service 'drive.googleapis.com' for consumer 'project_number:861329395237'."

Why are we all using the same project number and why can we not customize this so we are all restricted only by our own account limitations?

See https://support.google.com/drive/thread/255433247/jetbackup-error?hl=en and https://forum.jetbackup.com/jetbackup-cpanel/jetbackup-fails-with-google-drive-t601.html - Same project IDs as my error logs.

  Hey there!  This would be a better question for JetBackup directly, but here is advice their team provided when I reached out to them:

  In this case please decrease the values of Concurrent System Tasks to 1, Concurrent Restore/Download/Reindex Tasks to 1, and Concurrent Backup/Clone Tasks to 1:

  https://docs.jetbackup.com/v5.3/adminpanel/settings.html#concurrent-system-tasks

  Also, please try to reduce Maximum Concurrent Threads to 10

  https://docs.jetbackup.com/v5.3/adminpanel/Destinations/DestinationType/GoogleDriveDestination.html#maximum-concurrent-threads

  For additional questions it's probably best to ask them directly at https://forum.jetbackup.com/ so their team can reply directly.

  acadiasys - I heard from the JetBackup team just now and they let me know they have resolved the 403 error on their forums site.
