Rate limiting

The Cloud Wrapper Configuration API imposes rate-limiting constraints and exceeding these limits results in a 429 error response. Consider this especially when calling successive operations as part of a loop. These response headers provide rate limit information:

Limit Default value Description

Limit	Default value	Description
`X-RateLimit-Limit`	50	The maximum number of requests the API can process per minute.
`X-RateLimit-Remaining`	Variable	The number of remaining requests allowed during the current rate limit period. When this becomes 0, you get a 429 error the next time you make an API call. This gradually increases and becomes equal to `X-RateLimit-Limit` if you make no API calls after receiving a 429 error.

X-RateLimit-Limit

The maximum number of requests the API can process per minute.

X-RateLimit-Remaining

Variable

The number of remaining requests allowed during the current rate limit period.

When this becomes 0, you get a 429 error the next time you make an API call. This gradually increases and becomes equal to X-RateLimit-Limit if you make no API calls after receiving a 429 error.
