Overview

The Cometly API implements rate limiting to ensure fair usage and maintain service quality for all users. Rate limits are applied per Space and are enforced per minute. Each endpoint has specific rate limits documented on its respective page.

Rate Limit Headers

Every API response includes headers that provide information about your current rate limit status:
HeaderDescription
X-RateLimit-LimitThe maximum number of requests allowed in the current time window
X-RateLimit-RemainingThe number of requests remaining in the current time window
Retry-After(Only on 429 responses) Number of seconds to wait before retrying

Rate Limit Response

When you exceed a rate limit, the API will return a 429 Too Many Requests status code. The response will include a Retry-After header indicating how many seconds you should wait before making another request.
