Understanding API Rate Limiting

Rate limits throttle the number of API calls you can make. Every endpoint has a weight, and every weight has a default rate limit, but some endpoints have rate limits that differ from the default. To learn more, see the API Rate Limit Summary.

The following table provides the typical assignment and values for each weight. However, specific operations can have a different weight from these typical values.
