Rate Limits

To ensure fair usage and API stability, the QR Build API implements rate limiting based on your subscription plan.

How Rate Limiting Works​

  • Limits are enforced at the workspace level — all API keys in a workspace share the same quota
  • Limits are enforced on a monthly basis
  • The counter resets on the 1st of each month at midnight UTC
  • Each API request counts as one request, regardless of response size

Checking Your Usage​

You can check your current API usage in the workspace settings.

Exceeding the Limit​

When you exceed your rate limit, the API returns a 403 Forbidden error:

{
  "success": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "LIMIT_EXCEEDED",
    "message": "Limit exceeded for ApiRateLimit. Current: 2000, Limit: 2000"
  }
}

Best Practices​

  1. Cache responses — Store QR code data locally when possible
  2. Batch operations — Use bulk endpoints for multiple operations
  3. Monitor usage — Set up alerts when approaching your limit
  4. Upgrade if needed — Contact us for higher limits
