Bruno · Rate Limits

Bruno Api Rate Limits

Bruno is a client-side developer tool and operates no hosted public API, so there are no server-side request-rate limits to publish. The Bruno desktop client and the @usebruno/cli runner make outbound requests to whatever APIs you target; any throttling comes from those third-party APIs, not from Bruno. The only Bruno-imposed quotas are product/plan limits on the paid tiers - most notably OpenAPI sync counts and workspace counts - which are seat/plan entitlements rather than API rate limits.

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

It captures 5 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests, workspaces, syncs, and admins.

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

Tagged areas include API Client, API Testing, Developer Tools, Open Source, and Rate Limiting.

Any throttling of requests Bruno sends is enforced by the third-party API being called, not by Bruno.

Policies

Client-Side Tool
Bruno runs locally (desktop app or CLI); it does not sit between you and an API as a hosted service and therefore imposes no network rate limits.
Respect Target Limits
When running collections (especially via @usebruno/cli in CI/CD), honor the rate limits, Retry-After headers, and 429 responses of the APIs you are testing.
Plan Entitlements
Paid-tier caps (workspaces, OpenAPI syncs, license admins) are subscription entitlements, not API throttles.
