Appwrite Rate Limits

Appwrite's published rate-limit behaviour. This file replaces a 2026-05-04 scaffold whose per-tier requests-per-minute numbers were invented — Appwrite does not rate limit by plan tier at all, and recording it that way described a different product.

Appwrite Rate Limits is the rate-limit profile for Appwrite on the APIs.io network.

The provider publishes no rate limits that could be read; the profile records that absence rather than inventing a ceiling.

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

The profile also includes 3 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled, quotaExceeded, and serviceUnavailable.

Tagged areas include Applications, Backends, Mobile, Open Source, and Rate Limiting.

Policies

Client-only enforcement
Rate limits apply to Client SDKs. Server SDK calls authenticated with an API key are exempt.
Reset computation
Clients must derive the wait from X-RateLimit-Reset (UTC epoch seconds); no Retry-After is sent.
Free-plan bandwidth exhaustion
On the Free plan, exhausting bandwidth denies API access entirely until the plan is upgraded — a quota consequence more severe than throttling.

Work with this as data
