Carrier Global · Rate Limits

Carrier Global Rate Limits

Carrier publishes one hard number for the Lynx APIs — 500,000 calls per month across the tenant's key — and no runtime rate-limit headers. Every one of the 16 published operations declares a 429 response, so exhaustion is contractually visible, but a client cannot see how much budget is left without tracking it itself.

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

It captures 1 rate-limit definition.

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

Tagged areas include HVAC, IoT, Telematics, Cold Chain, and Rate Limiting.

Policies

Exponential backoff
The 429 schema itself instructs consumers: "Too many requests hit the API too quickly. We recommend exponential backoff of your requests." Best practices add a 30-second call timeout and retry-with-backoff on transient failures.
Cadence guidance instead of headers
Carrier substitutes published polling cadence for runtime headers — 30-minute recommended query duration for history and snapshot reads, and the Push API (webhooks) for anything more frequent than 30 minutes.
Cache the asset list
"Sync your asset list once a week to keep your cache current and avoid 400-level asset id errors. This also protects your API Calls quota."
Batch where the contract allows
multi-asset-history accepts 10 assets per request and asset-history-items accepts 1; batching is the documented way to stay inside the monthly quota.
