# Rate Limiting (Error 429)

## Slow down!

Your code should look for and expect HTTP status code 429 (too many requests).  If you receive this response code, you should retry your request after a waiting a bit.  **All account are rate-limited to protect the service and mitigate abuse.** &#x20;

```
HTTP 429:  Too many requests
```

{% hint style="info" %}
&#x20;We may change the rate limits on free accounts without notice to prevent abuse.
{% endhint %}
