description: >-
  No public API rate limits are documented because Tradify does not publish a
  public developer API. There is no developer portal, published quota, or
  documented throttling behavior for third-party programmatic access. Any limits
  that apply to Tradify's undocumented app backend (api.tradifyhq.com) or to
  unofficial proxy access are internal and unpublished. For supported
  integrations, throughput and rate limits are governed by the partner platform
  (for example, Xero's own API rate limits apply to the Tradify-Xero sync on the
  Xero side).
notes: >-
  Nothing to reconcile - no numeric public API limits exist. If a public API is
  introduced in the future, revisit this file.

responseCodes:
  throttled: 429
limits:
- name: Public API Requests
  scope: account
  metric: requests
  limit: not applicable
  notes: Tradify publishes no public API, so no public request-rate limit is documented.
- name: App Backend
  scope: session
  metric: requests
  limit: not published
  notes: >-
    api.tradifyhq.com is an undocumented, session-authenticated internal backend;
    any limits are internal and unpublished.
- name: Partner Integration Sync
  scope: integration
  metric: requests
  limit: governed by partner
  notes: >-
    Accounting/payment integration throughput is subject to the partner
    platform's rate limits (e.g. Xero, QuickBooks Online), not Tradify.
