Recraft Rate Limits

Recraft API access requires a positive API Unit balance; throughput is gated primarily by available units rather than published HTTP RPS. Specific rate limits are not publicly listed; standard 429 backoff applies.

It captures 2 rate-limit definitions, measuring api_units and requests.

An exhausted limit returns HTTP 429.
