Rate Limiting

Afi API is not designed for extensive calling or real-time polling. Our priority is the responsive Afi control panel and as such API calls are subject to rate limiting.

When an application receives an error with HTTP status code 429, indicating that its API calls quota is reached, it is expected to use an exponential backoff algorithm before retrying or sending a new request.

Warning

Not following exponential backoff may result in larger and larger throttling and even ban of the application.
