# Rate Limits

> Rate-limiting behavior, retry guidance, and safe client patterns

# Rate Limits

Linquid APIs can enforce request throttling for reliability.

## When throttling happens

* high burst traffic on write-heavy routes
* sustained high-frequency polling patterns
* workspace-level resource protection

## Client expectations

* handle `429` with exponential backoff and jitter
* respect retry budgets
* reduce parallel fan-out on analytics/detail pages
