Rate limits

60 requests a minute and 5,000 a day, shared across all of your keys.

Your limits are:

  • 60 requests a minute, with short bursts of up to 10
  • 5,000 requests a day

Limits are per person, so all of your keys share them. They're the same on every plan.

Search and passages calls each count as 2 requests. Fetching the OpenAPI document doesn't count.

Headers

Every response includes these headers:

HeaderMeaning
X-RateLimit-LimitRequests allowed per minute.
X-RateLimit-RemainingRequests you can make right now.
X-RateLimit-ResetWhen more requests become available, as a Unix timestamp.

To see them:

curl -D - -o /dev/null "https://api.joindrip.ai/v1/workspaces" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DRIP_API_KEY"

Going over the limit

The call returns HTTP 429 with status set to rate_limited. Wait the number of seconds in the Retry-After header, then try again.
