Rate Limits

Overview

The API implements rate limiting to ensure fair usage and protect against abuse.

Operation Type	Rate Limit	Scope
Read (GET requests)	100 requests/min	Per API Key
Write (POST/DELETE requests)	20 requests/min	Per API Key
Entity Creation	10 entities/hour	Per Workspace

Rate Limit Response

When you exceed a rate limit, you’ll receive a 429 Too Many Requests response:

{
  "error": "Rate limit exceeded. Please slow down your requests.",
  "retryAfter": 30
}

The Retry-After header indicates how many seconds to wait before retrying.

Handling Rate Limits

import time
import requests

response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)

if response.status_code == 429:
    retry_after = int(response.headers.get('Retry-After', 60))
    time.sleep(retry_after)
    # Retry the request

Best Practices

Cache responses to reduce API calls
Batch operations when possible
Implement retry logic with exponential backoff
