The number of requests the API consumer can make in a second
A rate limit is the number of API requests (calls) an app or user can make within a defined time.
If the number of requests exceeds the limits described in the table below, requests are temporarily blocked (throttled) until the rate limit window resets; the responses return an error with status code 429.
The methods not listed in this table share a total default rate limit of 200 requests per second.
