Guusto Rate Limits

Guusto does not publish blanket numeric rate limits for its Gifts API. The documentation states that the Manager Insights reporting resource (GET /api/v1/reports/members/last-recognized) has a request limit, and that exceeding it returns an error indicating the limit has been reached. Order volume is effectively bounded by the workspace and member reward budgets rather than by a per-minute request cap, and gift orders accept up to 20 items per request.

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

It captures 3 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests and items.

The profile also includes 2 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled.

Tagged areas include Employee Recognition, Rewards, Rate Limiting, and Quotas.

Policies

Budget Bound
Gift ordering is constrained by available workspace and member reward budgets (retrievable via the Account Budget API) rather than a request cap.
Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter and honor error responses that indicate a limit has been reached before retrying.
