Rate limits on the REST API — what are the defaults?

Bob Martinez Bob Martinez 2 months ago

Before I build a sync job against the API, what rate limits should I expect? Are they tied to trust level like the on-site limits, or separate for API clients?

I respectfully disagree on one detail. In my setup the opposite held true, though I suspect it comes down to community size.

Following this thread closely. We are about to face the exact same decision and the replies here are gold.

Solid breakdown. The only thing I would add is to back up before making the change — better safe than sorry.

Tried this on a staging copy first and it behaved exactly as described. Confident enough to roll it to production now.
