description: >-
  Coperniq API rate limits are enforced per API key. Every authenticated response carries
  X-RateLimit-Limit and X-RateLimit-Remaining headers; exceeding a limit returns 429 Too Many
  Requests. Key generation (POST /api-keys) is not counted against the limits.

headers:
  limit: X-RateLimit-Limit
  remaining: X-RateLimit-Remaining
responseCodes:
  throttled: 429
notes: >-
  X-RateLimit-Remaining is approximate (AWS usage data may lag several minutes and is cached up to
  60s per key); treat it as a near-term estimate, not a real-time counter. Request a temporary
  increase via support@coperniq.io.
