Rate Limits

Our APIs rely on rate limits to help provide a predictably pleasant experience for users.

The details of how and when rate limiting works differ between features. This article overviews the rate limits you're likely to encounter for our features and then notes how the limits apply to each feature. Although not real-time, API polling involves the repetitive transmission of client requests to an endpoint for the purpose of identifying information changes. We recommend the following frequency for your REST requests to ensure that you always have the most up-to-date information.
