OpenAPI Specification
openapi: 3.2.0
info:
title: up Communication API
description: 'Browser-powered API marketplace. 103 of 103 APIs included (capped at 449 for RapidAPI compatibility).
Billing: a call spends WEIGHTED UNITS against your plan''s monthly quota — not a flat one call = one unit. A light HTTP relay costs 1 unit; heavy work costs more, up to 25 (search-engine result pages 25, headless-browser renders and page scrapes 20, residential-proxy social reads 15, LLM completions 10, datacenter social/media reads 4). Every operation declares its own price as `x-upapi-unit-weight`, so a workload can be costed before it is run. Quota state rides on every response in the `RateLimit` / `RateLimit-Policy` headers.'

description: 'FORBIDDEN — the key is valid but not allowed to make this call. Three causes: the key belongs to a different organization than the one in the path; the key was minted without the scope this endpoint requires (the message names the missing scope); or the operation is not included in the organization''s plan — a plan gate, which no retry clears. Upgrade the plan or mint a key with the right scope.'

description: 'Two DIFFERENT conditions share this status, told apart by `error.code`. `RATE_LIMITED` — the per-minute burst window is full; it refills on its own, so back off and retry (`Retry-After` is seconds, typically 60) and nothing was spent. `QUOTA_EXCEEDED` — a BUDGET is gone: the monthly weighted-unit quota, a trial''s unit cap, or the plan''s hosted-function compute seconds. Retrying on a short backoff will never succeed; `Retry-After` points at the real refill (the next UTC month, or the end of the trial), and upgrading the plan is usually the intended fix.'
