Tu Dresden Rate Limits

TU Dresden publishes no unified rate-limit table across its APIs, but two of its surfaces do state a limit in their own documentation and both were confirmed on 2026-08-30. Open metadata and harvesting endpoints (OPARA and Qucosa OAI-PMH, the OPARA DSpace REST API) publish no numeric limit and may throttle large-scale harvesting; clients should harvest politely, honor Retry-After, and contact the service for bulk access.

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

It captures 3 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests-per-minute and seconds-between-requests.

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 1 backoff/retry policy defined and response codes documented for throttled.

Tagged areas include Education, Higher Education, University, and Rate Limiting.
