Apiary Rate Limits

Published rate limits for Apiary's surfaces. Apiary documents limits for exactly one surface — the Mock Server — and documents the response headers it returns. It publishes no rate limit at all for the Apiary API itself (api.apiary.io), which is the surface an integrator actually calls to fetch and publish API description documents.

Apiary Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Apiary on the APIs.io network, in the API Commons Rate Limits shape.

It captures 2 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests_per_minute.

Limit state is signalled in the limit, remaining, reset, and retryAfter response headers.

The profile also includes 1 backoff/retry policy defined and response codes documented for throttled and note.

Tagged areas include API Blueprint, API Design, Mock Servers, and Rate Limiting.

Policies

Raising the mock-server limit
Authenticating the mock-server request with a token raises the ceiling from 120 to 5000 requests per minute. Generate the token at https://login.apiary.io/tokens and send it as `Authentication: Token `.
