What is the maximum number of API hits a customer can make per second, minute, day, and month for any API endpoint? and what does status code 429 mean?

The general limit range set for API hits are as follows:

Monthly = 50000

Daily = 5000

Per Minute = 30

Per Second = 5

In any case, if the above-mentioned limit gets exceeded then the API hit pass through the execution failure error “429 Client Error: Too Many Requests for URL”
429 – Too Many Requests: This status code indicates that your application or user account has sent too many requests in a given timeframe, exceeding the allowed API hit limits.

Note: It’s not about specific API endpoint but once the above-mentioned limit gets exceeded it will fail for any endpoint that is been executed.

Kindly set the API hits to ensure that it does not exceed the specified limits.
Also, if you require higher limits, you can request an increase by updating your contract with us. Feel free to reach out to your dedicated Customer Success Manager for further details or to discuss your specific needs.
