Namely Rate Limits

Namely publishes exactly one rate limit, and it is unusual in two ways worth recording: it applies to a single endpoint rather than the API as a whole, and exhaustion is signalled with HTTP 406 Not Acceptable rather than the conventional 429 Too Many Requests. No rate-limit response headers are documented, so a client has no runtime signal of remaining budget and must detect exhaustion by pattern-matching a status code that normally means content negotiation failed.

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

It captures 1 rate-limit definition.

Tagged areas include Human Resources, HCM, Payroll, Employee Data, and Onboarding.
