Rate Limiting#

LoanStreet maintains a rate limit in order to ensure platform availability, defend against malicious actors, and maintain an optimal performance for all our clients.

Rate limiting controls the number of requests received by our API within a time frame.

Note

LoanStreet allows 10 requests per second.

Do not submit more than 10 requests per second in order to prevent throttling.

If this limit is exceeded, any API requests made by the user will fail with a 429 Response code.

HTTP/1.1 429 Too Many Requests
Vary: Accept
Content-Type: text/javascript

{'error': 'Rate limit exceeded: 10 per 1 second'}

You must wait until the time limit expires in order to continue to make requests. Currently, you must wait a second in order to make new requests.
