Rate Limits
Rate limits exists to prevent any client from overwhelming the API with requests.
There are two rate limits to be aware of:
- Each account is limited to two OData requests per one second window.
- Each account is limited to 500 media downloads per five second window.
A client exceeding a rate limit threshold will receive a 429 (Too Many Requests) error response.
⚠️ Important:
Clients are responsible for building a throttling mechanism to avoid exceeding the rate limits.
Each request that exceeds the rate limit will be billed as a Class A transaction. See Billing for more information.
