Rate Limits

Epoch flow uses a fixed window rate limiter. You can make a miximum of 600 requests per minute and 6000 requests per hour before hitting the rate limiter which will return a 429.

Best practices to avoid rate limiting

• Utilize the batch endpoints when ingesting data
• Utilize the import tool when uploading historic data
• New data points are processed every 5 minutes so perform response caching on any proxied queries where possible
• Implement a backoff retry strategy
• Implement a circuit breaker
