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.
