Bodytrace Rate Limits

BodyTrace does not publish fixed numeric API rate limits. In practice the data volume is naturally bounded by the devices themselves: a cellular RPM device transmits only a handful of measurements per day (a patient weighs in or takes a blood-pressure reading a few times daily), plus periodic heartbeat messages. Consumers reading via the data values pull endpoint should poll on a modest interval rather than tight-loop, since new data only appears when a device transmits. The push (webhook) delivery model avoids polling entirely - BodyTrace POSTs each measurement to your endpoint as it arrives. Numeric per-account or per-endpoint request caps are not documented and should be confirmed with BodyTrace.

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

It captures 3 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests and messages.

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

Tagged areas include Remote Patient Monitoring, RPM, Cellular, Rate Limiting, and Quotas.

Limits

Data Values Pull Requests account
requests
not published
No fixed numeric request-rate limit is documented; poll on a modest interval since data is low-frequency.
Device Transmission Frequency device
messages
a few readings + heartbeats per day
Bounded by patient behavior and device firmware, not by an API quota.
Push Delivery endpoint
messages
event-driven
BodyTrace POSTs one measurement to your endpoint per transmission; you control throughput on your side.

Policies

Prefer Push Over Poll
Use the customer-hosted webhook to receive measurements as they arrive rather than polling the data values endpoint.
Backoff Strategy
When polling, implement a modest interval and exponential backoff with jitter; honor Retry-After on any 429 response.
Idempotent Ingestion
De-duplicate on deviceId + ts, since a device may re-transmit and pushed deliveries can be retried.
