Rate Limit

Rate limiting of the API is primarily considered on a per-user basis. We consider two main Rate Limit windows: per minute and per day. Additionally, any requests made before being authenticated are rate limited by IP source and are restricted to 500 requests per minute.
If you exceed our rate limits you can expect to receive an error code 429 responses from our API.

Minute Rate Limit#

Up to 1000 requests can be consumed every minute, and our response headers will detail:
X-MinuteRateLimit-Identifier allowing you to identify the minute time window
X-MinuteRateLimit-Limit is the total amount of requests
X-MinuteRateLimit-Remaining is the remaining amount of available requests
