Autodesk Construction Cloud Rate Limits

Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) APIs are served via Autodesk Platform Services and inherit APS rate-limit semantics (per-app, per-token, 429 with Retry-After). ACC-specific APIs (Issues, RFIs, Submittals, Data Connector) document per-API limits in their respective reference pages rather than at a single canonical URL.

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

It captures 3 rate-limit definitions, measuring varies and concurrent_requests.

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

Tagged areas include Construction, BIM, Project Management, AEC, and Rate Limiting.

Limits

ACC API Throttling (per-app, per-token) account/app
varies
per-API limits documented in each ACC API reference page
Treat as variable per API; instrument 429 handling at the integration level.
Data Connector export concurrency account
concurrent_requests
see ACC Data Connector reference
Bulk export jobs are queued; large exports may take minutes to hours depending on project size.
Webhook delivery account
varies
APS webhook delivery retries on transient failures with exponential backoff
Consumers must respond 2xx within the documented timeout to avoid retries / disablement.

Policies

Backoff Strategy
Honor Retry-After when present; use exponential backoff with jitter on 429 / 503.
Per-App Token Scoping
Rate limits are scoped to the calling app's client_id; multi-integration callers should split credentials.
Data Connector Queuing
Treat Data Connector bulk-export requests as long-running async jobs — poll status rather than spinning on the request endpoint.
