# Rate limit

The Loop API enforces a rate limit of 300 requests per minute per API key. To avoid exceeding this limit, ensure your application averages no more than 300 requests per minute.

If the limit is exceeded, the API will respond with a `429 Too Many Requests` status. In this case, pause API calls briefly before retrying.
