Optimizely Rate Limits

Published API rate limits across the Optimizely estate. Optimizely documents limits in prose on two product docs pages (ODP and CMP) and nowhere else — and it returns NO rate-limit response headers anywhere: not one of the 28 harvested OpenAPI documents declares X-RateLimit-*, RateLimit-* or Retry-After, and only 2 of 1,606 documented error responses declare a 429 at all. An agent therefore cannot read remaining quota from an Optimizely response and must pace client-side against the numbers below.

Optimizely Rate Limits is the rate-limit profile for Optimizely on the APIs.io network — every limit transcribed verbatim from the provider’s own documentation on 2026-08-13.

It captures 8 rate-limit definitions, including ODP — Events API — Events No limit; ODP — Objects API — Objects No limit; ODP — Lists API — Lists 10 requests per second.

An exhausted limit returns HTTP 429.

The profile also includes response codes documented for throttled.

Tagged areas include Rate Limiting, Experimentation, and Customer Data.
