Rate Limiting

By default Auto API has rate limiting enabled for all API requests. For simplicity, the rate limiter uses a fixed time window and can record how many API requests are made over minutes, hours or days. By default the rate limiter is set to 40 requests per 1 hour window.

Clients can see their current limit with the following API call:

{
    "created_at": "March 10 2026 15:13:34",
    "status": 200,
    "results": {
        "allowance": 40,
        "requests": 1,
        "remaining": 39,
        "ttl": 3600,
        "allowance_reset": "47 minutes"
    }
}
