Browserstack Rate Limits

Published rate limits for the BrowserStack API surface, per product API. Limits are stated per user, per IP address, or per group depending on the product; there is no plan-tiered rate limiting in the published documentation.

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

It captures 6 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests and requests_per_second.

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.

Tagged areas include Accessibility, Appium, Application, Automation, and CI/CD.

Policies

Exhaustion response
All documented limits return HTTP 429 Too Many Requests on exhaustion.
Recovery
Test Management documents a fixed 60-second wait after a 429. No other product API documents a recovery interval, and none returns Retry-After.
Undocumented surfaces
The Accessibility Testing, Percy, Test Reporting and Analytics, Screenshots, App Live, Local Testing, Automate TurboScale and Low Code Automation API references do not publish rate limits. Their limits are unknown, not absent.
