Rate limit violations on the /api/v1/artifacts endpoint occur when devices check for Okta Verify updates more than 60 times per minute. Administrators can safely ignore these warnings, as they do not affect user authentication. A rate limit warning appears in the System Log for the /api/v1/artifacts endpoint.

- Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
- Okta Verify
The /api/v1/artifacts endpoint checks for and downloads updated versions of Okta Verify. The current rate limit for this endpoint is 60 requests per minute. When requests exceed this threshold, Okta generates a rate limit warning and does not process additional matching API requests for that time period.
How are rate limit warnings on the /api/v1/artifacts endpoint handled?
Administrators can safely ignore these rate limit warnings, as they do not affect user authentication. Okta fulfills the same request if the device resends it later when the API requests do not exceed the limits. To bypass the endpoint and obtain the application directly, administrators can download the latest Okta Verify versions directly from the admin dashboard or utilize the API to download them programmatically.
