Limits

Tenant API Throughput tenant
varies
per-tenant transactional limits documented in Workday Community (login required)
Workday governs API throughput, integration concurrency, and Studio batch behavior at the tenant level; specific numeric thresholds are not publicly published.

Policies

Customer Center Documentation
Operational throttling, retry, and integration-failure policies are published in Workday Community / Customer Center articles available to authenticated Workday customers and partners.
Tenant Isolation
Limits apply per tenant rather than per API key; production and implementation tenants have distinct throughput envelopes.
