Rate Limit Options
Option | What does it do? | How do I update this? |
---|---|---|
Rate limit refill rate Defaults to 20 | Determines how quickly user’s rate limit quota replenishes. It specifies the number of requests users regains per unit of time. | Click into the “20” text box and type in a new number |
Rate limit refill time Defaults to 1 second | Refers to the time interval used to measure the rate limit refill in conjunction with the refill rate. When users reach or exceed the rate limit, they need to wait until the refill time elapses. During this waiting period, users won’t be able to make additional requests. The refill process continues until the capacity or quota is fully replenished, allowing users to resume making requests within the specified limits. | Click into the “1” textbox and type in a new number, then change the “Seconds” dropdown if you’d prefer a different time unit For the time unit, you options are: |
Rate limit burst capacity Defaults to 50 | This number sets the maximum number of requests allowed without any refill. It represents the size of the bucket that holds user’s available request quota. | Click into the “50” textbox and type in a new number |
Apply Rate Limit | Clicking this button will instantly enforce the specified rate limit settings. It ensures that the defined restrictions on the number of requests users can make within a given time frame are applied immediately. Otherwise changes to rate limit settings may take a few minutes before they are applied. |

No, it is not possible to limit only specific users. If an account is a heavy user of the API, they will be limited. As rate-limiting is a per-user limit, only those who are heavy users will be impacted. |
