Buzzsprout Rate Limits

Buzzsprout does not publish fixed numeric per-minute or per-hour rate limits for its REST API. The documentation instead emphasizes correct client behavior: send a custom User-Agent (default agents may be blocked), set Content-Type to application/json; charset=utf-8 on writes (a wrong type returns 415), and honor HTTP caching. Responses include ETag / Last-Modified headers, and clients are expected to store them and resubmit as If-None-Match / If-Modified-Since to get 304 Not Modified responses and avoid unnecessary traffic. The practical usage ceiling is the account's plan upload-hour allowance rather than an API request cap.

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

It captures 2 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests and hours.

The profile also includes 4 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for unsupportedMediaType and serverErrors.

Tagged areas include Podcasting, Podcast Hosting, Audio, Rate Limiting, and Quotas.

Policies

User-Agent Required
Requests must set a custom User-Agent header; some default agents are blocked.
HTTP Caching
Responses carry ETag / Last-Modified; clients should send If-None-Match / If-Modified-Since to receive 304 Not Modified.
Content-Type Enforcement
POST and PUT requests must use Content-Type application/json; charset=utf-8 or the API returns 415 Unsupported Media Type.
Retry on Server Errors
Clients should implement retry logic for 5xx responses (500, 502, 503, 504), ideally with exponential backoff.
