C.H. Robinson · Rate Limits

Ch Robinson Worldwide Rate Limits

C.H. Robinson does not document numeric rate limits in its API reference, but the Kong 3.10 enterprise gateway in front of every Navisphere host returns real limit headers on every response, including unauthenticated ones. Those observed values are recorded below. The only limit the provider states in prose is a soft one on the token endpoint - tokens last 24 hours and callers who re-authenticate more often may be throttled. Partner-specific quotas remain governed by the onboarding agreement.

Ch Robinson Worldwide Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for C.H. Robinson on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Rate Limits specification.

It captures 2 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests.

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

Tagged areas include Rate Limiting, Logistics, and Freight.

Policies

Token reuse
Tokens are valid for 24 hours. The provider's own Authentication documentation instructs callers to hit the token endpoint once per 24 hours; more frequent calls may be rate limited.
Backoff Strategy
Use exponential backoff with jitter on 429 / 503 responses; honor Retry-After when present.
Partner credential scope
Credentials are scoped to the contracted shipper or carrier; calls outside the agreed surface return 401/403.
