Rate Limiting

Updated this week

What is Rate Limiting?

Rate limiting protects your bridges from abuse, accidental loops, and cost overruns by capping the number of invocations allowed per time window.

Configuring Rate Limits

  1. Open a bridge in the editor

  2. Go to the Settings tab

  3. Toggle Rate Limiting on

  4. Set limits:

    • Requests per minute β€” Default: 60, Max: 10,000

    • Requests per hour β€” Default: 1,000, Max: 100,000

  5. Click Save

Monitoring Usage

When rate limiting is enabled, the Settings tab shows real-time usage stats β€” current requests in the minute and hour windows compared to your limits. Stats refresh automatically every 10 seconds.

When a caller exceeds the rate limit, the bridge returns an HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) response.
