Limits
Request rate limits.
| What | Limit |
|---|---|
| All Partner API methods | 600 requests per minute per API key |
GET /v1/recipients/lookup | 120 requests per minute per Project (instead of the key limit) |
When a limit is exceeded, the response is 429 with code -11005 and a Retry-After header (seconds until the next attempt):
{ "success": false, "error": { "code": -11005, "type": "rate-limit", "message": "Too many requests" }, "meta": { … } }Recommendations:
- retry after
Retry-After, not immediately; use exponential backoff on network errors; - use webhooks instead of frequent polling of
GET /v1/orders/{id}; - debounce recipient lookup in your UI.
Delivery limits (how many orders per minute are actually fulfilled) depend on the number of Supplier Accounts, not on the API, see throttling.
