> API rate limits enforced by Identity Server on Automation Cloud, applied per customer to ensure consistent performance.

:::note
This feature is available for Automation Cloud only. It is not available for Automation Cloud Public Sector or Automation Cloud Dedicated.
:::

The Identity Service enforces rate limits on API requests to ensure consistent performance and availability for all customers. Rate limits are applied per organization and measured over a five-minute interval.

When you exceed a rate limit, the service returns **HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests)** responses. Plan your integration to stay within these limits to avoid request throttling.

Table 1. Rate limits

| HTTP method | Maximum requests per 5 minute per organization |
| --- | --- |
| `GET` | 300 |
| `POST` | 24.000 |
| `PUT` | 160 |
| `PATCH` | 160 |
| `DELETE` | 160 |

:::note
All limits are evaluated in five-minute windows per organization.
