Salesforce Sales Cloud Rate Limits

Rate-limits artifact for Salesforce Sales Cloud. Trimmed to a single umbrella entry pending manual reconciliation. Salesforce publishes per-edition pricing on its product pages, but those pages are not retrievable via automated fetch (HTTP 403). All editions are sold via Salesforce Sales; API access is included with the underlying CRM license rather than priced as a discrete API SKU. Treat this artifact as a contact-sales placeholder until pricing pages can be reconciled manually.

Policies

Per-Edition Quota
Salesforce APIs share a single org-wide 24-hour quota driven by edition and licensed user count, with API Request Limits visible in Setup > System Overview.
Concurrent API Request Limit
Salesforce caps concurrent long-running API requests per org; specific numbers are documented in the Salesforce App Limits Cheatsheet.
Backoff Strategy
When a 429 is returned, clients should honor Retry-After and apply exponential backoff with jitter.
