Hootsuite publishes a single platform-wide rate limit for the REST APIs: a per-second request ceiling plus a daily quota, both applied to the calling account. Runtime state is returned on every response in three X-Account-* headers.

Hootsuite Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Hootsuite on the APIs.io network, in the API Commons Rate Limits shape.

It captures 2 rate-limit definitions.

Limit state is signalled in the style, response, retry_after, and note response headers.

Tagged areas include Social Media, Social Media Management, Marketing, Content Scheduling, and Analytics.

Limits

per-account

· per 1s

20/1s

Published verbatim as "Limits are set to 20 requests / second". Hootsuite warns that the remaining-requests header is reported per cluster node, with the allowance divided equally across nodes, so the value is a guide rather than an exact budget.

per-account

· per 1d

100000/1d

Published verbatim as "a maximum daily quota of 100,000 calls per day".
