Sesame HR · Rate Limits

Sesame Hr Rate Limits

The Sesame Public API (v3) enforces a documented rate limit of 1,000 requests per minute per company. This limit is shared across all API tokens belonging to the same company - the combined total from all tokens cannot exceed 1,000 requests per minute, so issuing additional tokens does not increase the ceiling. The limit is organizational rather than per-token. Requests over the limit are throttled with an HTTP 429 response.

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

It captures 1 rate-limit definition, measuring requests.

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

Tagged areas include Human Resources, HRIS, Time Tracking, Rate Limiting, and Quotas.

Policies

Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter and honor Retry-After on 429 responses.
Shared Company Budget
The 1,000 req/min budget is pooled across every token a company issues; adding tokens does not raise the limit.
