Hi there,
Yes, we do have rate limiting enforced over our API end-points, the details of which can be found here:
Hi All,
As part of our ongoing work to strengthen our systems and improve reliability for all users we will shortly be introducing rate limits to our API.
The exact nature of these limits is still being finalised, however our current proposal (which may be subject to change) is to set request limits as follows:
3600 requests per user per hour
120 requests per user per minute
5 token refreshes per minute
These limits are per individual user of your integration and are reset at the “top” of …
There’s also a follow-up post that explains how you can simulate exceeding the rate limiting, which should help to ensure your integration responds gracefully
Hi All,
As per the previous discussion (Important Announcement: Rate Limits ) we are still on track to implement rate limiting on the FreeAgent API on July 1st 2017.

e.g.
curl -H "X-RateLimit-Test: true" -H "Authorization:…
I hope this helps!
