Each Public API key has a per-key throttle enforced by API Gateway. Requests that exceed the limit are rejected with 429 Too Many Requests before the handler runs, so your integration sees the throttle even when the upstream service is healthy.

​
Default limits

The steady-state rate is what your integration can sustain indefinitely; the burst is the short spike allowed on top of that. Both can be raised per key — email help@onevisionresources.com with the expected RPS and a short description of the workload.

What a throttled response looks like

The Retry-After value is the suggested number of seconds to wait before retrying. Build your client to honour it; aggressive retries without backoff will keep you throttled.

​
Recommendations

  • Cache reads on your side when you can — GET /v1/conversation/{id} is the most common source of preventable load.
  • Use exponential backoff with jitter on every 429 and on 503.
  • Spread out batch jobs; the per-second rate limit applies regardless of how the requests cluster.
  • Treat the limits as a contract, not a soft target. If your integration grows past them, request an increase ahead of the change.
