Rate Limits

Clients are limited to a maximum of 100 requests per minute per API subscription key. This is intended to ensure quality of service for all clients using Bestpass APIs.

If a client exceeds the rate limit, the API will return an HTTP 429 Too Many Requests response. This will include a Retry-After header indicating how long to wait (in seconds) before the request should be retried. The body of the response will also include a similar message, e.g.

{
"statusCode": 429,
"message": "Rate limit is exceeded. Try again in 12 seconds."
}
