Back to API List Quality AI enforces rate limits to restrict the number of API requests an account/application can make within a timeframe. It helps prevent a single user or service from consuming disproportionate resources that could degrade the service for others. Requests are monitored against a sixty-second limit. As long as the limit isn’t exceeded, the account/application can continue making requests. Subsequent requests fail with the following error message when the rate limit is exceeded. “You’ve exceeded the per-minute rate limit. Wait for sometime before retrying.”

Best Practices

  • Spread out calls evenly to avoid traffic spikes.
  • Use filters to limit the data response size and avoid calls that request overlapping data.
  • When the limit has been reached, stop making API calls. Wait for the specific time period to pass. Alternatively, implement a back-off strategy where your application automatically reduces its request frequency and retries failed requests after a calculated delay.
