Overview
External API limits are shared by all OAuth clients attached to the same GetBill company. They use a one-hour sliding window.
For campaign snapshots specifically:
The write limit permits a maximum-size 100,000-row staged snapshot to be delivered in five chunks of 20,000 rows, while leaving room for start, finalize, status, and safe retries.
Rate limit response
When a limit is exceeded, the API returns429 Too Many Requests:
429 response:
Retry-After: seconds to wait before retryingX-RateLimit-Limit: request limit for the exceeded classX-RateLimit-Remaining: remaining tokensX-RateLimit-Reset: Unix reset timestampX-RateLimit-Window: window length in seconds.
Retry safely
Wait at least theRetry-After duration. Add jitter when many workers share the company credentials.
429 require different handling:
- after
429, the request was rejected; wait and retry - after an uncertain timeout, retry using the endpoint’s idempotency rules, then poll the reference-based status URL.
