If we start receiving unusually heavy call volumes on your API key, you may receive responses with HTTP: 429 "Too Many Requests"
.
Throttled API responses will contain a Retry-After
header that contains the number of seconds to wait until the endpoint becomes available again. To ensure your client accesses the API fairly, it should parse this value and waits the appropriate amount of time.
Repeated instances of unexpected throttled requests should be addressed one of the following ways:
- If you are not on a paid plan, you will need to upgrade. Please email [email protected] to set up an API plan.
- If you are already on a paid API plan, please slow down and retry your requests. Contact [email protected] or our live support if you continue to have problems.
