v6mlp (v6mlp) asked a question.

Is the API rate limit per unique endpoint or aggregated across endpoints?

If I'm calling two API endpoints together, e.g. POST /api/v1/users and then also POST /api/v1/users/{userID}/factors, can I make 300 users calls per minute and 300 factors calls per minute, or 300 API calls per minute in total (i.e. 150 users and 150 factors)?

    Hi Andrew,

     

    Okta has two types of API rate limits:

     

    • Org-wide rate limits that vary by API endpoint. These limits are applied on a per-minute or per-second basis, and some are also applied on a per-user basis. 
    • Concurrent rate limits on the number of simultaneous transactions. For example, if you sent 77 very long-lasting requests to any API endpoint simultaneously, you might exceed the concurrent rate limit.

     

    More Information : https://developer.okta.com/docs/reference/rate-limits/

     

    Check with OKTA support for increasing the Rate Limit for your ORG. they can increase it.
