Restream Rate Limits

Restream's developer documentation describes the REST API (channels, events, users), the Streaming Updates WebSocket, and the Chat WebSocket, but does not publish per-second / per-minute rate-limit numbers. The functional product caps that drive consumption (simultaneous channels, embedded-player viewers, team seats) live in the subscription plan rather than as documented HTTP rate limits.

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

It captures 2 rate-limit definitions, measuring varies and concurrent_streams.

The profile also includes 2 backoff/retry policies defined.

Tagged areas include Rate Limiting, Live Streaming, and Multistreaming.

Policies

Plan-Bound Concurrency
The most consequential consumption ceiling is the simultaneous-channel cap defined by the active subscription tier rather than HTTP-level throttling.
OAuth2-Scoped Access
Access to Restream APIs is OAuth2-scoped per user, so limits and behavior should be treated as per-user-account rather than global.
