Xano · Rate Limits

Xano Rate Limits

Xano rate limiting is driven by subscription plan rather than per-key token budgets. On the Free plan the generated REST APIs are rate limited (roughly 10 requests per 20 seconds); paid plans (Essential, Pro) advertise unlimited API rate limits subject to the dedicated instance capacity. The Metadata API and user-built endpoints can additionally have per-endpoint rate limits configured by the builder inside the workspace. Specific Metadata API throttle values are not separately published and are not reconciled in this artifact.

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

It captures 4 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests.

The profile also includes 2 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled.

Tagged areas include No Code, Backend as a Service, BaaS, API Builder, and Database.
