API rate limits
We understand the importance of ensuring optimal performance and reliability of our services for all users. To achieve this, we implement API rate limits, which are caps on the number of requests an app can make to our APIs within a certain time frame. This page outlines how the rate limits work and what they mean for your organization.
Understanding API rate limits
Rate limits are designed to prevent any user, organization an app from overloading our system and network.
Here's how it works:
- Our rate limiting mechanism operates on a moving window basis. This means the number of requests an app can make is calculated in real-time over a rolling time interval.
- The rate limit depends on your subscription plan with Original as below:
Plan rate | Methods | Rate limits per app |
---|---|---|
Low | POST, PUT | 10 requests per second / app |
Low | GET | 50 requests per second / app |
Medium | POST, PUT | 25 requests per second / app |
Medium | GET | 150 requests per second / app |
High | POST, PUT | 50 requests per second / app |
High | GET | 250 requests per second / app |
Highest | POST, PUT | 100 requests per second / app |
Highest | GET | 500 requests per second / app |

What happens if you exceed the limit?
If your organization app exceeds the API rate limit, there will be a temporary suspension where additional API calls will be blocked with an HTTP 429 Too Many Requests
error until the rate limit window resets.
