Rate Limiting

AuditAuth enforces request throttling to protect platform stability.

Enforcement

• Exceeded limits return 429 Too Many Requests.
• Limits can vary by endpoint class and platform policy.
• Enforcement may combine identity, key, and network context.

Client Strategy

• Use exponential backoff with jitter for retries.
• Avoid synchronized retries from multiple workers.
• Throttle proactively on client side for burst-heavy jobs.
• Treat repeated 429 as a signal to reduce request pressure.

Integration Guidance

• Keep auth refresh calls strictly on demand.
• Queue non-critical telemetry (/metrics) during bursts.
• Prefer idempotent retry patterns for safe operations.
