Tibber Rate Limits

Tibber publishes rate-limit guidance but not specific per-token or per-client numeric ceilings. Both the legacy GraphQL API and the modern Data API are positioned as rate-limited services; clients must implement retry with exponential backoff plus jitter, and respect the `Retry-After` header.

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

It captures 2 rate-limit definitions.

The profile also includes response codes documented for throttled and serverBusy.

Tagged areas include Energy, Rate Limiting, and OAuth.

Limits

per personal access token
Rate limits are enforced but not numerically disclosed. Excessive polling of `liveMeasurement` from a single token results in disconnection; use the websocket subscription rather than repeatedly polling the query API.
per OAuth client + per access token + per endpoint
Tibber documents 429 throttling with `Retry-After` plus 5xx infrastructure retry windows. Treat the API as rate-limited even when 429s are rare; if observed latency climbs, proactively reduce poll frequency.
