Rate Limiting on Services

Rate limiting allows you to control how many requests to your service can be made per minute. You configure this on a per-token basis by configuring a rate_limit_token parameter.

This parameter specifies the maximum number of requests allowed per minute for each unique token. If the rate limit is exceeded, further requests with that token will receive a 429 Too Many Requests response until the rate limit resets.

It is encouraged to use rate limiting to protect your services from abuse ensure fair resource usage.

Publicly accessible services

Rate limiting is only available for services that require authentication. At the moment it is not possible to rate limit services that are publicly accessible, as there is no token involved in those requests.
