API Usage

Core patterns for working with the Upbooks API.

API Usage

Rate Limits

Upbooks™ API – Rate Limits

Upbooks™ APIs have rate limits in place to ensure fair usage and protect system integrity.

Default Rate Limits

Requests Per Minute (RPM): 60
Requests Per Hour (RPH): 1000

Rate Limit Headers

When you exceed limits, the API responds with headers:

X-RateLimit-Limit: 60 (RPM)
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 42 (RPM)
X-RateLimit-Reset: 1609459200 (UTC timestamp)

Rate Limit Exceeded

The API returns 429 Too Many Requests. Implement retries and respect limits.

Adjusting Rate Limits

For higher limits, contact Upbooks™ support to discuss custom quotas.
