limit_count: 0
limits: []
guidance:
- scope: per-advertiser (AID)
  window: 2 hours
  limit: null
  type: advisory
  statement: >-
    "No formal rate limits are in place. However, MNTN recommends not running the connector more than
    once every two hours per Advertiser ID (AID) for repeated queries, as the data will not have changed."
  source: https://improvado.io/docs/mountain
  note: >-
    This is a recommendation relayed by a connector vendor, not an MNTN-published enforced quota. It is
    recorded as advisory guidance, not as a limit, which is why limit_count is 0.
enforcement:
  status_on_exhaustion: 429
  scope: 'POST /batch (submitExport) only'
  declared_in: openapi/mntn-batch-export-openapi.yml
  response_schema: ExportResponse
  media_type: application/json
  note: >-
    429 is declared on exactly one operation out of 92 across the three APIs, and it returns the batch
    ExportResponse schema rather than an RFC 9457 problem document.
response_headers:
  published: []
  checked:
  - X-RateLimit-Limit
  - X-RateLimit-Remaining
  - X-RateLimit-Reset
  - RateLimit-Limit
  - RateLimit-Remaining
  - RateLimit-Reset
  - RateLimit-Policy
  - Retry-After
  result: none declared
  evidence: >-
    Zero response headers of any kind are declared across all 92 operations in the three OpenAPI
    definitions (openapi/_original/*.json). Confirmed by parsing every responses[].headers block.
  note: >-
    This is the material agent-readiness gap on MNTN's API surface. A client that hits the batch 429
    is given no Retry-After and no reset time, so correct backoff cannot be computed from the response
    and has to be guessed.
size_limits:
- scope: per-request payload
  status: 413
  statement: 'Payload Too Large -- the query exceeds server memory limits. Use the asynchronous /batch endpoint for large requests.'
  applies_to: [getData, postData, list, submitExport, listExports, getExportStatus, regenerateUrl]
  source: openapi/mntn-reporting-api-openapi.yml
  note: >-
    MNTN throttles by result size rather than by request rate, and publishes an explicit escape hatch
    (the async /batch export) instead of a quota. That is the real shape of the control here.
- scope: export row cap
  statement: 'CSV/Excel exports may be row-capped; see rate limits in platform documentation.'
  value: null
  source: 'openapi/_original/mntn-reporting-api-openapi.json info.description'
  note: >-
    The spec points at "platform documentation" for the cap, but no public page states a number --
    the referenced documentation is not reachable without a platform login.
