Rate Limits

CubeStack applies rate limits to ensure fair usage and platform stability.

Rate Limit Headers

Every API response includes rate limit information:
HeaderDescription
X-RateLimit-LimitMaximum requests per window
X-RateLimit-RemainingRemaining requests in current window
X-RateLimit-ResetUnix timestamp when the window resets

Exceeding the Limit

When you exceed the rate limit, the API returns a 429 Too Many Requests response:
{
  "error": "Rate limit exceeded. Try again later."
}

Best Practices

  • Cache responses when possible
  • Use pagination to reduce the number of requests
  • Implement exponential backoff on 429 responses
  • Contact support if you need higher limits
