Rate limits

Each credential may make 60 requests per minute unless its key has a custom limit.

  • Limits are counted per API key, per minute.
  • Endpoints that need no credentials are limited per IP address.
  • OAuth access tokens are limited per app and person.
  • Read and write endpoints share the same per-key limit.
