Read your limits

The request-rate limits that apply to you, read live. The figures are this answer's; as_of is when they were read.

GEThttps://api.refabric.com/v1/account/limits
import os
import requests

url = "https://api.refabric.com/v1/account/limits"

headers = {"Authorization": f"Key {os.environ['REFABRIC_API_KEY']}"}

response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)

print(response.json())
{
  "as_of": "2026-10-05T12:00:00Z",
  "rate_limits": [
    {
      "limit": 600,
      "per": "api_key",
      "window_seconds": 60
    },
    {
      "limit": 120,
      "per": "ip",
      "window_seconds": 60
    }
  ]
}

Authentication. A key with account:read: the limits are the ones that apply to you.
