Crunchtime Rate Limits

Crunchtime Inventory & Labor APIs enforce a per-site/route usage limit of 500 API calls within any 5-second window; exceeding it returns HTTP 429 until usage subsides. Requests count toward the limit regardless of success or failure. Additional structural limits govern batch save size, list ceilings, page size, and request timeouts.

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

It captures 4 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests_per_5s, records_per_save, records_per_list, and records_per_page.

The profile also includes response codes documented for throttled.
