Rate Limits

To ensure fair usage and system stability, Cambrionix Connect APIs implement rate limiting.

Rate Limit Headers​

All API responses include rate limit information in headers.

Default Limits​

Default rate limits vary by API and endpoint. Specific limits are documented in each API's reference documentation.

Rate Limit Exceeded​

When you exceed the rate limit, the API returns a 429 Too Many Requests status code.

Best Practices​

  1. Monitor headers: Check rate limit headers in responses to track usage
  2. Implement backoff: Use exponential backoff when you receive 429 responses
  3. Cache responses: Cache frequently accessed data to reduce API calls
  4. Batch requests: Use batch endpoints when available to reduce request count
