specification: API Commons Rate Limits specificationVersion: '0.1' schema: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/api-evangelist/interface-research/main/schema/api-commons.yml#/$defs/RateLimits provider: Assertible providerId: assertible generated: '2026-09-04' method: searched source: https://assertible.com/plans created: '2026-05-04' modified: '2026-09-04' # 2026-09-04: this file previously held a bulk-sweep SCAFFOLD asserting # X-RateLimit-* response headers, a 429 on exhaustion and per-tier # requests-per-minute ceilings. NONE of that is published by Assertible and no # such header was observed on a live response. The scaffold has been replaced # with what Assertible actually publishes and what was actually observed. tags: - API Testing - Monitoring - Rate Limiting - Quotas description: >- Assertible publishes no request-rate limit for its API and returns no rate-limit response headers. Its published position is that request counts are not capped; capacity is limited by plan on product resources (web services, tests, retained results, members, schedule frequency) instead. limit_count: 0 limit_count_note: >- Zero is a measured result, not a gap. Assertible states on its pricing page: "Do you have request limits per month? Instead of limiting the number of requests you can make, limits are placed on the number of results you can see for those requests, the number of tests you can create, how frequently you can run schedules, etc." headers: limit: null remaining: null reset: null retryAfter: null policy: null observed: [] probed: '2026-09-04' probe_detail: >- POST https://assertible.com/deployments and POST https://assertible.com/apis/{uuid}/run, both unauthenticated, returned 401 with headers Content-Type, Date, Server, Content-Length, Connection and (on the trigger URL) Set-Cookie. No RateLimit-*, X-RateLimit-* or Retry-After header was present. responseCodes: throttled: null quotaExceeded: null note: >- No throttling status code is documented. Do not assume 429; it was neither published nor observed. limits: [] capacity_limits: note: >- These are the plan-scoped product limits Assertible does publish. They are not request-rate limits and are recorded here so a consumer can see what actually constrains usage.
