description: >-
  Nimble SDK enforces a per-API-key rate limit. The default ceiling is 83 QPS
  (5,000 QPM) applied across driver types (vx6, vx8, vx10). Higher limits are
  available via sales. Rate-limit state is signalled on every response via
  X-RateLimit-* headers; exceeding the limit returns HTTP 429 with retry_after.
headers:
  limit: X-RateLimit-Limit
  remaining: X-RateLimit-Remaining
  reset: X-RateLimit-Reset
responseCodes:
  throttled: 429
