Microsoft Azure Data Factory Rate Limits

Published throttling limits for the Azure Data Factory REST API. This replaces a 2026-05-04 scaffold that asserted invented per-API-key limits (10 rpm free tier, X-RateLimit-* headers). Data Factory has no API keys and returns no X-RateLimit-* headers. It is a Microsoft.DataFactory resource provider behind Azure Resource Manager, so the real limits are ARM's regional token-bucket limits, applied per subscription per service principal per operation type, and the real runtime signal is the x-ms-ratelimit-remaining-* family.

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

It captures 6 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests_per_second.

The profile also includes response codes documented for throttled, quotaExceeded, and serviceUnavailable.

Tagged areas include Rate Limiting, Quotas, and Throttling.
