Rate limits

Limits apply per API key.

Limit Value
Requests 50 per second, bursts up to 100

Every response carries the remaining budget:

RateLimit-Limit: 50
RateLimit-Remaining: 47
RateLimit-Reset: 1

Past a limit, requests get 429 rate_limited with a Retry-After header in seconds. Wait that long, then retry. If you keep hitting limits, spread requests out or use separate keys for separate jobs.
