Information about our API rate limitation

Hard limit

Our API has a global user rate limit of 60 requests per minute. This means that a maximum of 60 requests can be sent at 1 minute intervals using the same API key.

Rate limits

If you exceed your rate limit you will receive a 429 error response with a "Too Many Attempts" message. If you think you will be hitting these limits, please implement a backoff strategy that would even out the requests over time.
