Rate limit
Be nice. If you're sending too many requests too quickly, we'll send back a 429 error code (TooManyRequests).
You are limited to 60 reqs/min per account. Practically, this means you should (when possible) authenticate users so that limits are well outside the reach of a given user.
The API response headers also give you the following X-RateLimit value
Header (per GCP policy, all Header values will change to lower case e.g. x-ratelimit-reset since Oct 1, 2019)
Header | Example | Description |
---|---|---|
X-RateLimit-Reset | 1406096275 | The unix timestamp when the rate limit will be reset. |
X-RateLimit-Limit | 60 | The rate limit ceiling for your account per min. |
X-RateLimit-Remaining | 59 | The number of requests left for the 1 minute window. |
