Tive Rate Limits

The Tive Public API (v3) is a Bearer-token-authenticated REST API. Tive's developer documentation does not publish specific numeric rate limits for the public API. Known operational constraints include short-lived bearer tokens (1 hour / 3600 second lifetime, after which a 401 is returned and a new token must be requested) and list pagination (e.g. the List Devices endpoint returns up to 50 devices per request). Any per-account request-rate or throttling thresholds are not documented and are not reconciled in this artifact.

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

It captures 3 rate-limit definitions, measuring seconds, items, and requests.

The profile also includes 3 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled and unauthorized.

Tagged areas include Supply Chain, Shipment Visibility, Logistics, IoT, and Trackers.

Policies

Token Refresh
Re-authenticate via POST /authenticate when a token expires (401) to obtain a fresh bearer token.
Pagination
Page through list endpoints (e.g. devices) using the documented pagination support rather than assuming full result sets.
Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter and honor Retry-After on 429 responses if encountered.
