Breeze ChMS · Rate Limits

Breeze Chms Rate Limits

The Breeze ChMS API enforces a request-rate limit of roughly 20 requests per minute per account API key. Breeze recommends waiting about 3.5 seconds between calls to stay under the limit; exceeding it results in a temporary block. The limit applies across the whole API surface (people, tags, events, attendance, giving, funds, pledges, forms, volunteers, and account) since all endpoints share the same Api-Key credential and church subdomain. There are no separate published per-endpoint quotas, and there is no data volume or seat-based API cap - the constraint is request frequency.

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

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

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

Tagged areas include Church Management, ChMS, Rate Limiting, and Quotas.

Policies

Temporary Block
Exceeding the request-rate limit results in a temporary block until the window resets.
Backoff Strategy
Implement spacing (~3.5s) and exponential backoff with jitter; honor 429 responses and retry after the window resets.
Caching
Cache reference data such as funds, tags, calendars, and profile fields to minimize repeated calls against the shared rate limit.
