Rate Limiting and Quotas

To ensure optimal performance and fair resource distribution, APIRE.IO enforces specific rate limits and quotas on API usage. Understanding these constraints and managing your usage accordingly will help maintain seamless integration with our services.

Limits Explanation

APIRE.IO imposes the following rate limits:

  • Per-Minute Limit: A maximum of 100 requests per minute.

These limits are applied per API key to ensure equitable access for all users.

Monitoring Usage

To help you monitor your API usage and avoid exceeding the limits, APIRE.IO provides usage information in the response headers of each API call:

  • X-RateLimit-Limit: Indicates the maximum number of requests allowed in the current time window.

  • X-RateLimit-Remaining: Shows the number of requests remaining in the current time window.

  • X-RateLimit-Reset: Specifies the time at which the current rate limit window resets, in UTC epoch seconds.

By examining these headers, you can track your usage in real-time and adjust your request patterns to stay within the allowed limits.

Handling Limit Exceedance

If you exceed the rate limits, the API will respond with a 429 Too Many Requests status code. The response will include the Retry-After header, indicating the number of seconds to wait before making a new request.

Recommended Actions:

  • Implement Exponential Backoff: When receiving a 429 response, wait for the duration specified in the Retry-After header before retrying. If the limit is exceeded again, increase the wait time exponentially.

  • Optimize Request Patterns: Review your application's request logic to ensure it operates efficiently within the established limits.

  • Contact Support for Higher Limits: If your application requires higher rate limits, please contact APIRE.IO support to discuss your needs and potential adjustments.

By adhering to these guidelines, you can effectively manage your API usage, prevent disruptions, and maintain a smooth integration with APIRE.IO's services.

Versioning

APIRE.IO employs a structured versioning strategy to ensure seamless integration and adaptability as the platform evolves.

Current API Version

The current version of the API is v1. This version is stable and actively maintained, providing a reliable foundation for your applications.

Versioning Strategy

APIRE.IO utilizes URL Path Versioning, embedding the version number directly into the API endpoint URL. This approach offers clear visibility of the API version in use and simplifies version management.

Example:

To access the user resource in version 1, the endpoint would be:

Handling Version Upgrades

When a new API version is released, it will be assigned a new version number (e.g., v2) and made available alongside the existing version. This parallel availability allows developers to transition to the new version at their own pace.

Recommended Steps for Upgrading:

  1. Review Documentation: Examine the release notes and updated documentation for the new version to understand changes and enhancements.

  2. Test Compatibility: Implement the new version in a controlled environment to ensure compatibility with your application.

  3. Update Endpoints: Modify your application to point to the new version's endpoints (e.g., from /v1/ to /v2/).

  4. Monitor Performance: After deployment, monitor your application to confirm that it functions as expected with the new API version.

Deprecation Policy

To maintain an efficient and secure platform, APIRE.IO may deprecate older API versions over time. Deprecation involves phasing out support for a specific version, eventually leading to its retirement.

Deprecation Process:

  1. Announcement: A deprecation notice will be issued at least 90 days before the planned retirement date, communicated through official channels such as the APIRE.IO website and email notifications.

  2. Support Period: During the deprecation period, the deprecated version will remain operational, but no new features will be added. Critical security updates will be provided as needed.

  3. End of Life (EOL): After the deprecation period, the version will reach its EOL, and access will be discontinued.

Recommendations for Deprecated Versions:

  • Plan Ahead: Monitor deprecation announcements to allocate sufficient time for transitioning to newer versions.

  • Update Applications: Prioritize updating your applications to utilize supported API versions to ensure uninterrupted service.

  • Seek Assistance: If you encounter challenges during the upgrade process, contact APIRE.IO support for guidance.

By adhering to this versioning strategy and staying informed about updates, you can ensure that your applications remain compatible and take advantage of the latest features and improvements offered by APIRE.IO.

The process of verifying the identity of a user or system. In APIs, authentication ensures that only authorized users can access certain resources or perform specific actions.

Authorization

The process of determining what an authenticated user is permitted to do. While authentication verifies identity, authorization controls access levels and permissions.

Rate Limiting

A mechanism that restricts the number of API requests a user can make within a specified time frame. Rate limiting helps prevent abuse and ensures fair usage of resources.

SDK (Software Development Kit)

A collection of software tools, libraries, and documentation that developers use to create applications for specific platforms or frameworks. SDKs simplify the integration of APIs into applications.

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation)

A lightweight data-interchange format that is easy for humans to read and write, and easy for machines to parse and generate. JSON is commonly used for transmitting data in web applications.

REST (Representational State Transfer)

An architectural style for designing networked applications. RESTful APIs use HTTP requests to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on resources.

OAuth

An open standard for access delegation commonly used for token-based authentication and authorization. OAuth allows third-party services to exchange information without exposing user credentials.

Latency

The time delay between a request and its corresponding response. In API interactions, lower latency indicates faster response times, enhancing user experience.
