Appnet Rate Limits

App.net Stream API rate limits, enforced per access token for authenticated calls and per IP address for unauthenticated calls. Transcribed from the preserved api-spec rate-limits documentation; the service is retired.

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

It captures 3 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests.

Limit state is signalled in the remaining, limit, and reset response headers, and an exhausted limit returns HTTP 429.

The profile also includes 2 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled.

Tagged areas include Rate Limiting and Social.
