Wistia Rate Limits

Wistia publishes a single account-wide request ceiling plus a much tighter per-endpoint ceiling on bulk media moves, and several documented per-request batch caps. On exhaustion the API returns 429 with a Retry-After header. Wistia does NOT publish standing quota headers — there is no X-RateLimit-* or RFC 9331 RateLimit-* family on responses — so an agent cannot see how much budget it has left; it can only react to the 429. That was confirmed on a live 401 from api.wistia.com/v1/medias.json, whose headers carry x-request-id and x-runtime but no rate-limit fields.

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