API v2 rate limits

[OlegVlasov]

Hi guys,

I have some questions about the rate limits for the API.

Here is the context connected with my questions.
On the one hand, I've seen the post from the 2018 where the next limits were exposed in scope of the one API key:
- 5 requests per second 
- 50.000 requests per day.

On the other hand, I can see the specs where limit is defined as 1.000.000 API calls per day:
https://developer.myob.com/program/developer-program-details/

As a result, I have the following questions:

1) Did I get it correctly that limits are bound to the API key not to the account which issued that one?
2) What is the relevant requests limit per day (for the 1 API key) by default?
3) What is the actual/relevant requests limit per second/minute (for the 1 API key) by default?
Could share the latest details please?

Regards,
Oleg

Hi @OlegVlasov, 

Thank you for reaching out, By default when a key is created the rate limit is 8 calls per second and 1,000,000 calls per day. Yes that is correct the API limits are held against the key rather than the account.

Currently the rate limit displayed on the my.MYOB portal is also incorrect, we have submitted this to our team to be resolved. 

If you are getting an error we are happy to review your limit - you can create a request with us HERE. 

Let us know if you have any questions,
