Adobe Analytics Rate Limits

Adobe publishes a single hard numeric rate limit for the Adobe Analytics 2.0 APIs in the Analytics 2.0 API FAQ: 12 requests every 6 seconds per user (approximately 120 requests per minute). Exceeding it returns HTTP 429 with an Adobe error envelope carrying error_code 429050. Adobe also documents a 60-second request timeout on adobe.io. No RateLimit-* / X-RateLimit-* response headers are documented, and none is claimed here — an agent gets no runtime budget signal from this API and must treat the 429 itself as the only feedback.

Adobe Analytics Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Adobe Analytics on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Rate Limits specification.

It captures 1 rate-limit definition.

The profile also includes 2 backoff/retry policies defined.

Tagged areas include Rate Limiting, Analytics, and Web Analytics.

Adobe best-practice guidance
Adobe's own guidance in the same FAQ: make multiple smaller requests instead of one large request, and request data once then cache it.
Backoff strategy
No Retry-After is served, so exponential backoff with jitter on 429 is the only viable client strategy.
