Teachworks Rate Limits

The Teachworks API publishes a fixed per-token rate limit of 4 requests per second. Rate limiting is scoped to the API token, so all integrations sharing a token share the budget. List endpoints are paginated - 20 records per page by default, configurable with the per_page parameter up to a maximum of 80, and navigated with a 1-based page parameter. The published usage policy also prohibits excessive requests and retrieving records in a continuous loop, and states the API is not intended for bulk backups (use the in-app Excel download feature for that). All requests must be made over HTTPS.
