Permissions & rate limits

Who may call what, and how often.

Who may call what

An API key inherits the permissions of the account that made it. A key from an ordinary account cannot call reseller endpoints, even if the address is known.

Rate limits

Each endpoint has a per-minute limit. Past it you get a 429 along with how long to wait.

The limit is per account, not per key

Making a second key does not double your allowance. If you need more, contact us with the number and what it is for.

Using it safely

  • Never put a key in code that ships to a browser
  • One key per system, so one can be revoked alone
  • Revoke keys you no longer use — keys do not expire on their own
