Sleuth · Rate Limits

Sleuth Rate Limits

Sleuth's registration API applies endpoint-specific throttling. The custom metric impact registration endpoint is documented as accepting at most one value every 120 seconds per impact source, and rejects timestamps that predate the impact source's creation (no backfilling). Other registration endpoints (deploy, manual change, incident impact) and the GraphQL surface do not publish explicit numeric limits; verify any account-level limits with Sleuth during reconciliation.

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

It captures 5 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests and timestamp.

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

Tagged areas include DORA, DevOps, Deployment Tracking, Engineering Metrics, and Continuous Delivery.
