Api Snap Rate Limits

API Snap enforces rate limits per API key. Documented limits come from the pricing page as monthly request quotas (100 / 5,000 / 50,000 / 500,000 calls for Free / Hobby / Pro / Business tiers) and from the OpenAPI spec which declares a 429 response on every operation. Per-second or per-minute burst ceilings are not published on the public site as of profiling; the X-RateLimit-Limit and X-RateLimit-Remaining response headers are documented on the docs page and a structured 429 body returns `usage`, `limit`, and an `upgrade_url`. reconciled is false because per-second burst numbers are not publicly published.

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

It captures 5 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests_per_month and varies.

The profile also includes 5 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled and quotaExceeded.

Tagged areas include Rate Limiting, Developer Utilities, and Subscription Quotas.

Policies

Single key across all endpoints
One API key (snp_ prefix) authorizes every endpoint in the platform; quotas and rate limits are enforced per key, not per endpoint.
Quota reset
Monthly request counters reset on the billing cycle anniversary.
Throttle response body
HTTP 429 responses include a JSON body with `usage`, `limit`, and an `upgrade_url` pointing to https://api-snap.com/pricing so clients can prompt users to upgrade in-product.
Rate limit headers
Every response includes X-RateLimit-Limit and X-RateLimit-Remaining headers so clients can implement adaptive throttling.
Custom limits at Business tier
The Business plan advertises "custom rate limits" - bespoke limits should be confirmed with sales.
