Balancer Rate Limits

Balancer's public GraphQL API at api-v3.balancer.fi is operated on a fair-use basis without published per-key limits. The Graph subgraphs follow The Graph Network's per-key plan rate limits if accessed through a Studio key. Soft fair-use is around 10 queries per second per IP for the public API.

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

It captures 2 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests_per_second.

An exhausted limit returns HTTP 429.

This profile was written by API Evangelist and has not been verified against a page the provider published; treat every limit as unconfirmed until a dated transcription replaces it.

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

Tagged areas include DeFi, DEX, and Rate Limiting.
