detail: >-
  SPOTIO publishes no rate limits. Every article on the developer portal was read
  (Introduction, Authenticating, Paginating and Sorting, Status Codes and Errors,
  Filtering Collections, Working with DataObjects, Creating DataObjects, Working
  with Exports, Working With Bulk Jobs) and none names a quota, a window, a burst
  allowance or a throttling policy. The SPOTIO 2.0 OpenAPI declares 295 operations
  and not one of them declares a 429 response; the string "429" and every
  RateLimit/Retry-After header spelling are absent from the whole document. An
  agent therefore has no runtime signal to back off on, which is the finding.

limits: []

response_headers:
  observed: []
  documented: []
  note: >-
    No X-RateLimit-Limit / X-RateLimit-Remaining / X-RateLimit-Reset, no RFC 9238
    RateLimit-* and no Retry-After is documented or declared. Live observation is
    not possible anonymously - every SPOTIO endpoint requires a Bearer token and
    answers 401 without one.

related_throughput_controls:
  - control: bulk jobs
    detail: >-
      SPOTIO's stated reason for the DataObjectsBulkJobs surface is to avoid
      per-record calls - "instead of making individual API calls for each record,
      you can batch thousands of records into a single job". That is throughput
      guidance rather than a published limit, but it is the closest thing SPOTIO
      offers to a volume policy.

  - control: webhook delivery
    detail: >-
      On the outbound side SPOTIO does publish delivery limits - each webhook POST
      times out after 10 seconds and is retried up to 3 times with increasing
      intervals. That governs SPOTIO calling you, not you calling SPOTIO.

  - control: export polling
    detail: >-
      CSV exports are submit-then-poll with no documented minimum poll interval.
