Sense Rate Limits

Sense applies rate limits to both the REST Client API and the WebSocket Realtime API to protect platform stability and ensure consistent service quality across all connected monitors. The Client API imposes a default request cap of 60 calls per minute per authenticated session. The Realtime WebSocket feed delivers data continuously but the reference implementation enforces a polling interval of one update per 30 seconds for derived real-time polling patterns. Authentication tokens should be refreshed no more frequently than once every 15 to 20 minutes to avoid triggering server-side auth throttling. API requests time out after 5 seconds by default.
