To ensure the stability and performance of our API, we have implemented rate limiting based on IP address and API key.
This is a crucial security measure to prevent abuse and overuse of the API. Here’s how our rate limiting works:
Rate per day
Rate per seconds
Rate per minute
Under your API KEY, no daily rate limit (Requests Per Day, RPD) applies to API endpoints, with the following exceptions:
Our general rate limit policy applies based on IP address and allows:
50 hits per second over a 5-second period.
This means that requests originating from the same IP address can make up to 50 API requests per second.
If you exceed this limit, your requests may be throttled or temporarily blocked. The limit resets every 5 seconds.
Additionally, we enforce an average rate limit policy based on IP address:
10 hits per second averaged over a 2-minute period.
This means that over a 2-minute window, the average number of requests from the same IP address should not exceed 10 per second. If you surpass this average rate, your API access might be restricted until your request rate falls back within acceptable limits.
In addition to the per-second limits, we enforce a per-minute rate limit policy based on API key:
50 requests per minute (RPM).
This means that requests made with the same API key cannot exceed 50 per minute. If you surpass this limit, additional requests will be throttled or temporarily rejected until the limit resets.
