Rate Limits
We rate limit both on the Client level and the Tenant level. Requests made under each Client counts towards the Tenant’s total number of requests.Level | Default Limit per Second |
---|---|
Tenant | 10 |
Client | 5 |
Both valid and invalid requests count towards the rate limit.
Rate Limit Headers
We follow the the IETF standard to inform you of the current limit through response headers. Use these headers to properly throttle your requests.Maximum number of requests allowed within a window.
Number of requests left within a window.
Number of seconds left until limit resets.
