Forma: Locations API Rate Limits

View as Markdown

The Forma Locations API observes a set of rate limits to ensure that all clients get sufficient service and that runaway applications don’t consume excessive resources. You’ll find general information about rate limits in APS Rate Limits and Quotas.

Rate Limits

EndpointsLimit (requests/minute)Scope
All Locations API endpoints combined600Per API key (APS application ID)
All Locations API endpoints combined200Per user account

Note that these rates are not service guarantees. In the uncommon case where total service use is too high across all clients, accepted request rates may drop until traffic subsides.

Violation Notification

If an application makes a Locations API request that exceeds this rate limit, the Locations service returns an HTTP 429 error (described in detail in APS Rate Limits and Quotas).

Changing Limits

APS Rate Limits and Quotas describes how to request rate limit changes for APS APIs.
