This section provides information about the rate limits for our API. Rate limits are put in place to ensure the stability and fairness of our service for all users.
What are Rate Limits?
Rate limits are restrictions on the number of requests a user can make to our API within a certain time frame. These limits are designed to prevent abuse and ensure that our service remains available to all users.
How do Rate Limits Work?
Our API uses a sliding window rate limiting algorithm. This means that your request count is checked over a rolling time window, typically one hour. If you exceed the limit during this window, your requests will be temporarily blocked.
Current Rate Limits
The current rate limits are as follows:
- Read Operations: 1000 requests per hour
- Write Operations: 500 requests per hour
What happens if I exceed the limit?
If you exceed the rate limit, you will receive a 429 Too Many Requests response. Your request will be retried after a short pause. If you continue to exceed the limit, your account may be temporarily suspended.
How to Check Your Usage
To check your API usage, you can use the following endpoint:
GET /Documentation/en/Usage
This will return a JSON object with information about your current usage.
Tips for Managing Rate Limits
- Plan your API usage in advance to avoid hitting the rate limits.
- Use caching to reduce the number of requests you need to make.
- Contact our support team if you need higher rate limits.
