Place API
Rate limits
All requests sent from a specific API consumer to the Place API may be subject to a rate limit.
Rate limiting restricts the number of requests the API accepts for processing over a given time period (time window) to ensure stability and prevent misuse. If the number of requests exceeds the rate limit, then subsequent requests are rejected.
Note: If your requests are subject to rate limiting, the responses you receive will include header information about the status of the rate limit.
The following rate limits may apply:
| Header | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| x-ratelimit-limit | The number of requests allowed per minute. | 59 - Rate limit of 59 requests. |
| x-ratelimit-remaining | The number of requests left in the time window of 1 minute. | 10 – Rate limit of 10 requests. |
| x-ratelimit-reset | The time window, within which requests are counted, for determining the rate limit (milliseconds). | 60000 - Time window of 1 Minute, the time bound applied to the rate limiting. |
