Rate Limits

Every Allxon API endpoint has a rate limit on the number of requests you can make within a specific time window. If you exceed this limit, you will see error responses with status code 429.

The rate limiter restricts the number of API requests to 1000 calls/hour. If you would like to increase the rate limit, please contact us to upgrade your usage.

Checking the Rate Limits

You can use the API response's headers to determine your rate limit.

Header nameDescription
X-Ratelimit-LimitThe maximum number of requests that you can make per hour
X-Ratelimit-RemainingThe number of requests remaining in the current rate-limit window
X-Ratelimit-ResetThe time, in seconds, at which the current rate-limit window resets

Exceeding the Rate Limit

If you exceed the rate limit, you will receive a response of 429, and the X-Ratelimit-Remaining header will be 0. You should not retry your request until after the time specified in the X-Ratelimit-Reset header.

To ensure continued access to the API, please avoid making excessive requests. Exceeding your rate limit may result in temporary blocking of your integration.
