Kegg Rest Api
The KEGG REST API enforces a maximum of 3 API calls per second per client. Exceeding this limit results in the client's access being blocked. There is no API key mechanism; all academic users share the same unauthenticated access tier. A separate per-call input limit restricts GET and CONV operations to 10 entries per request. The API is available only over HTTPS; HTTP access was retired in June 2022.
