Coda Rate Limits

Coda enforces per-API-token rate limits and returns 429 responses with a Retry-After header when the limit is exceeded. Limits scale with plan tier; mutation endpoints (row inserts, updates) are rate-limited more strictly than read endpoints.

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

It captures 3 rate-limit definitions, measuring request.

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

Tagged areas include Productivity, Docs, No-Code, Collaboration, and Database.

Limits

Read Requests api_token
request · per-minute
published per-account
Read endpoints (list, get) have a higher per-token request rate than writes.
Mutation Requests api_token
request · per-minute
published per-account
Row inserts/updates/deletes and other mutations are rate-limited more strictly.
Mutation Status Polling api_token
request · per-minute
published per-account
Use the asynchronous mutation status endpoint instead of tight polling loops.

Policies

Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter and honor the Retry-After response header on 429.
Batch Mutations
Insert/update many rows in a single request rather than one row per request.
Async Mutations
Mutation endpoints return a request ID; poll the mutation status endpoint until completion instead of immediately re-reading.
