Limits

tenant
Default published guidance. Bulk endpoints (List Records, List Workflows, Exports) may be subject to additional per-endpoint pacing. Use the Data Exports API for large pulls instead of paginating List Records.
tenant
POST /workflows/async is recommended for high-volume launches; poll GET /workflows/async/{asyncJobId} for status.
tenant
Exports are asynchronous jobs. Submit via POST /exports, poll status via GET /exports/{jobId}, download via GET /exports/{jobId}/download. Concurrent job limits apply per tenant.
tenant
SCIM list/search operations support filtering and pagination; prefer filter-based requests over full enumeration.
client
Token issuance is rate-limited per OAuth client. Cache access tokens for their full lifetime and use refresh tokens for the Authorization Code grant; do not request a new token per API call.
