Rate Limiting

To ensure system stability and fair usage across all clients, the RapidMule API enforces rate limits per API key and endpoint type.

Default Limits

CategoryLimit
General (per API Key)1000 requests per minute
Need Higher Limits?

Contact the RapidMule support team if your use case requires higher throughput.

When Limits Are Exceeded

If a client exceeds the allowed rate, the API returns:

  • HTTP status code: 429 Too Many Requests
  • Header: Retry-After (in seconds)
  • Response body:
{
"code": 429,
"message": "Rate limit exceeded. Please retry after 60 seconds."
}
