Backend Rate Limits

Ledger ingest is rate-limited per API key. The SDK retries on HTTP 429 using Retry-After.

Agent hint

Use when ingest returns 429 or events queue grows — default ~600 events/minute per key.

In scope

  • Ingest rate limit per key
  • SDK 429 retry behavior
  • Escalation endpoint auth

Out of scope

  • Cloud sync health fields — see Cloud Sync Resilience
  • POST /api/v1/ledger/events — ~600 events/minute per API key (default).
  • SDK respects Retry-After and applies exponential backoff with jitter.
  • POST /api/v1/escalations accepts dashboard JWTs or SDK keys (aux_*).
