The API allows 600 requests per minute per token. Responses include headers that tell you how much is left.
Headers
X-RateLimit-Limit: your limit per minuteX-RateLimit-Remaining: requests left in this windowRetry-After: seconds to wait after a 429
Errors
Errors use standard status codes and a JSON body with a code and a message.
Backing off
On a 429, wait for the number of seconds in Retry-After, then retry. Add a little random delay if many workers share a token.
