Rate Limits
Rate limits are applied per account and enforced at the API gateway level. All limits are measured in requests per minute with an additional burst capacity for short spikes.Burst capacity allows you to exceed the steady-state rate limit for a short period. For example, an endpoint with 50 req/min and burst 3 means you can fire up to 3 requests in rapid succession before the 50 req/min cap is enforced.
