The following rate limits apply to any API-key or OAuth API call. All rate limits are mutually exclusive.
| API action | Limit per endpoint |

The limits are introduced on the account level, not on the user level or per individual application. Calls for all POST, GET, PUT, and DELETE requests are counted.
PandaDoc API returns 429 Too Many Requests error when you exceed the limit of requests. If you hit the limit, whenever possible, please queue API calls on your end. This should help to prevent getting 429 errors and resend API calls after the retry timer.
PandaDoc reserves the right to modify these limits as needed to protect the integrity of the PandaDoc Platform.
