Render Com Rate Limits

The Render REST API enforces documented per-endpoint rate limits. Read (GET) requests are allowed at up to 400 per minute, while most write (POST/PATCH/DELETE) requests are limited to 30 per minute. Certain sensitive operations have their own tighter limits: service create/modify deploy operations at 20 per hour, custom domain operations at 50 per hour, deploy hooks at 10 per minute per service, log endpoints at 30 per minute, and one-off job creation at 100 per minute. Exceeding a limit returns HTTP 429, and every response carries Ratelimit-Limit, Ratelimit-Remaining, and Ratelimit-Reset headers so clients can pace themselves.

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

It captures 7 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests.

The profile also includes 2 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled.

Tagged areas include Cloud Hosting, PaaS, Rate Limiting, and Quotas.

Policies

Backoff Strategy
On a 429, retry using an exponential backoff schedule with random jitter and honor the Ratelimit-Reset header.
Header-Driven Pacing
Read Ratelimit-Limit, Ratelimit-Remaining, and Ratelimit-Reset on every response to stay under the limit rather than reacting only to 429s.
