Instructure Canvas employs a dynamic token-bucket style rate limiting system for its REST and GraphQL APIs. Rate limits are enforced per user access token rather than per account, ensuring that applications serving multiple users are not throttled at the developer key level. The Data Access Platform (DAP) API uses fixed endpoint-specific rate limits distinct from the Canvas REST API.

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

Tagged areas include EdTech, Education, LMS, Canvas, and Courses.
