Rate Limits

Current Status: No rate limits are currently enforced during the preview period.

Future Implementation

Rate limits will be implemented before general availability to ensure fair usage and system stability.

Planned limits:

  • Authentication endpoints: TBD requests per minute
  • API endpoints: TBD requests per minute per user
  • Webhooks: Maximum 3 retries per delivery

Best Practices

Even without enforced limits, follow these best practices:

  • ✅ Cache responses when appropriate
  • ✅ Implement exponential backoff for retries
  • ✅ Use webhooks instead of polling for updates
  • ✅ Batch requests when possible
  • ✅ Monitor your API usage

Response Headers

When rate limits are implemented, responses will include:

X-RateLimit-Limit: 1000
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 999
X-RateLimit-Reset: 1234567890

Rate Limit Exceeded

When rate limited (future):

Response: 429 Too Many Requests

{
  "error": "rate_limit_exceeded",
  "message": "Rate limit exceeded. Try again later.",
  "retry_after": 60
}
