# Limits/Throttling

All API requests are limited/throttled to prevent abuse and ensure stability. There are two types of limiting in place:

1. Usage Limits/Quota As a customer you would have been given a number of API calls that you are allowed to make each month. If you exceed this limit then your request will fail.
2. Rate Limits As part of your plan you will also have limits as to how often you can make particular calls. For example you may only be able to call a particular endpoint once per minute. If you exceed these limits then your request will fail.
