Tezos Rate Limits

Rate limit definitions for the TzKT public API (api.tzkt.io). The free public tier enforces 50 requests/second and 3,000,000 requests/day per IP address. Limits are communicated via standard X-RateLimit and RateLimit headers. Exceeding a limit returns HTTP 429. TzKT Pro plans have higher limits negotiated directly with Baking Bad.

Tezos Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Tezos on the APIs.io network, in the API Commons Rate Limits shape.

It captures 3 rate-limit definitions, across the free and pro tiers, measuring requests_per_second and requests_per_day.

Limit state is signalled in the limit, remaining, dayLimit, and dayRemaining response headers, and an exhausted limit returns HTTP 429.

This profile was written by API Evangelist and has not been verified against a page the provider published; treat every limit as unconfirmed until a dated transcription replaces it.

The profile also includes response codes documented for throttled, quotaExceeded, and serviceUnavailable.

Tagged areas include Tezos, Blockchain, TzKT, Baking Bad, and Rate Limiting.
