Rate limit documentation corrected
about 10 hours ago
We corrected our rate-limit documentation so it matches how the API actually enforces limits:
- Real limits per endpoint. The Rate Limiting page now lists the actual per-minute limit for every documented endpoint instead of example numbers. For example,
ip-lookupanddomain-lookupallow 100 requests per minute, and most other endpoints allow 60. - Scope. Limits apply per account (all API keys of an account share them) and are counted separately per endpoint. They are not per API key or per IP address.
- Window. Limits use a fixed one-minute window. There are no daily or monthly request quotas; usage beyond that is governed by your credits.
- Reset header.
X-RateLimit-Resetis a Unix timestamp marking when the window resets, not a number of seconds.
The Rate Limit Exceeded error page has been updated to match.
