Rate Limits
Handle rate-limited requests.
Requests sharing an API key share a rate limit. When it is exceeded, the API
returns 429 Too Many Requests with code RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED.
When a request is limited
Reduce concurrent requests and wait before trying again. Follow Retry-After
when the response includes it. The SDK retries 429 responses automatically
unless retries are disabled.
For large imports, use a queue with limited concurrency instead of sending every request at once. See retries and recovery before retrying writes.
Plan for your volume
Contact support to discuss your expected request volume and available limits before launching.
