  description: LKCloud APIs enforce a rate limit of 5 concurrent requests per SiteService Key.
recommendation: >-
  Start at a concurrency of 1 per data source and consult your ELLKAY technical contact
  about increasing concurrency if needed. Build integrations with configurable
  per-data-source concurrency.

  note: >-
    External/target systems may set their own rate limits; ELLKAY returns the
    ExternalApiRateLimitReached error code in the response content when they are hit.
