Each partner on OVOne has an assigned API rate limit and threshold. Alongside a general limit, specific lower limits apply to certain API calls. These rate limits are designed to ensure service availability and prevent system overload.

🚄 API Limits

By default, unless specified otherwise for a particular API endpoint, the following limits apply per Partner:

• 1,000 requests per minute for standard read API operations
• 500 requests per minute for creation, editing, or deletion API operations
• 200 requests per minute for operations that trigger network signaling (e.g., purging)

If you exceed these limits, you will receive an HTTP response with the status code 429 Too Many Requests. at which point the calling system is expected to honour the response, and back off requests for a period of time.

For requests regarding higher limits, please reach out to OV support, or your account manager.
