Rate Limits
Rate limiting is actively monitored and enforced on a per-partner basis to maintain platform health and security. Limits are determined from each partner's specific database configuration.
Rate limit policy#
Default limit: 60 requests per minute unless negotiated otherwise. Limits replenish dynamically at the turn of each minute window.
When the threshold is breached, subsequent calls are rejected instantly with a 429 Too Many Requests HTTP status. The response includes a Retry-After header conveying the exact duration in seconds to wait before attempting another transmission.
