Rate Limiting

To ensure fair usage and system stability, the Ping Proxies API implements rate limiting. This page explains our rate limits and how to work with them effectively.

​

Rate Limit Policy

The Ping Proxies API enforces a default rate limit of 10 requests per second per customer. This applies to most endpoints, with some exceptions:

• Some resource-intensive endpoints may have lower rate limits

Rate limiting helps us:

• Protect the API from excessive traffic
• Ensure fair access for all users
• Maintain reliable service performance

​

Rate Limit Exceeded Response

If you exceed the rate limit, you’ll receive a 429 Too Many Requests response with a body like:

{
  "error": "Too Many Requests",
  "message": "Rate limit exceeded. Please try again later.",
  "api_request_id": "0a5a76aa-e286-477b-b88f-e5b492a0ba70"
}
