Cortex Idp Rate Limits

The Cortex REST API limits requests to 1000 per minute per client. The maximum request body size is 2MB. Exceeding the request rate returns an HTTP 429 with a Retry-After header indicating how long to wait before retrying. These limits are documented in the Cortex API overview.
