REST API Limits

Exchange/Pro API
#1

Hello,

I’m using https://api.exchange.coinbase.com/products/ API to get products informations.
I’m limiting the endpoint calls to 8 requests per second.

On one machine (AWS) I’m facing the ERROR 429: {“message”:“Public rate limit exceeded”} but
on local machine I don’t receive such errors.

When I reduce the requests rate to 3 per second the problem disappears on the AWS machine too.

Are there additional limits for https://api.exchange.coinbase.com/products/ API ? For example per hour or a day?
Can my AWS machine’s IP specifically rate limited or black listed?

Best Regards.
PM

Hi @premedian ! Apologies for the delayed response.
As far as we’re aware of, there are no additional hourly or daily limits for the /products endpoint. You mentioned that the issue is only reproducible on your AWS machine, may we ask if you’re also using the AWS machine to make other calls to Exchange endpoints?
