The API enforces rate limits to keep access fast and reliable for every partner. Limits cap how many requests you can make in a time window; exceeding one returns a temporary 429 until the window resets.

Limits

  • Global limit: 120 requests per 60 seconds per API key.
  • Session creation and bulk operations have additional per-endpoint limits.
Your exact limits can vary with your plan and key configuration.

Response headers

Every response includes your current rate-limit status:
X-RateLimit-Limit: 120
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 95
X-RateLimit-Reset: 1625097600
HeaderMeaning
X-RateLimit-LimitMaximum requests allowed in the current window.
X-RateLimit-RemainingRequests left in the current window.
X-RateLimit-ResetUnix timestamp when the window resets.

When you’re limited

A throttled request returns 429 Too Many Requests:
{
  "statusCode": 429,
  "message": "Too Many Requests"
}
Implement exponential backoff with jitter. Start around 1s and double on each retry (1s, 2s, 4s, 8s) up to a sensible ceiling. Read X-RateLimit-Reset to wait exactly until the window resets instead of guessing.

Best practices

Cache platform lists and other rarely-changing data instead of refetching.
Prefer webhooks over polling to cut request volume.
Watch X-RateLimit-Remaining and slow down before you hit zero.
