Overview

Rate limits

Per-key requests per minute, concurrent runs, and the headers that tell you where you stand.

Requests per minute

Each API key has its own limit, chosen when you create it: 10, 30 (default), 60 or 120 requests per minute.

Keyed responses include:

HeaderMeaning
X-RateLimit-LimitThe key's requests per minute
X-RateLimit-RemainingRequests left in the current window
Retry-AfterOn 429: seconds to wait
HTTP
HTTP/1.1 429 Too Many Requests
Retry-After: 12
X-RateLimit-Limit: 30

{ "error": { "code": "rate_limited", "message": "..." } }

Runs in progress

An account can have 5 runs queued or running at once. A sixth answers 429 too_many_runs. Wait for one to finish or cancel one.

Tips

  • An open event stream counts once, when you open it, however long it runs.
  • Back off on 429 using Retry-After; don't retry in a tight loop.
  • Need more? Use separate keys per service, or create a key with a higher limit.
