Trigger Dev Rate Limits

Machine-readable rate limit definitions for the Trigger.dev Management and Realtime API surfaces. Captures per-tier API request rates, concurrent run ceilings, queue depth, payload size caps, batch trigger limits, realtime concurrency, and retention windows.

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

It captures 23 rate-limit definitions, across the all, free, hobby, and pro tiers, measuring requests_per_minute, concurrent_runs, concurrent_realtime_connections, schedules, and batch_runs_bucket.

Limit state is signalled in the retryAfter response header, 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 4 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled, quotaExceeded, and serviceUnavailable.

Tagged areas include Developer-First, Workflow Automation, Background Jobs, Durable Execution, and TypeScript.

Policies

Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter and honor the Retry-After header.
API Key Rotation Grace Window
24-hour grace window for API key rotations (changelog May 1, v4.4.5).
Burst Handling
Short bursts above the steady-state limit are tolerated up to the documented burst ceiling before throttling engages.
Fair Use
Sustained usage that materially impacts shared infrastructure may be subject to fair-use throttling even on enterprise tiers.
