Rate Limits

All Magne API endpoints are rate-limited per IP address using a sliding window algorithm with two tiers.

​
Tiers

TierMax RequestsWindowApplies To
Auth5 requests60 seconds/v1/auth/register, /v1/auth/login, /v1/auth/verify-email, /v1/auth/resend-code, /v1/auth/forgot-password, /v1/auth/reset-password
General300 requests60 secondsAll other endpoints
Additionally, webhook execution has its own per-webhook rate limit:
TierMax RequestsWindowApplies To
Webhook30 requests60 secondsPOST /v1/webhooks/:id/:token (per webhook ID)

​
Response Headers

When rate-limited, the API returns a 429 Too Many Requests response with:
HeaderDescription
Retry-AfterSeconds to wait before retrying
{
  "error": "Too many requests. Please try again later."
}

​
Retry Strategy

Implement exponential backoff when you receive a 429 response. Start with the Retry-After value, then double the wait time on each subsequent retry.
Recommended implementation: 
async function fetchWithRetry(url, options, maxRetries = 3) {
  for (let i = 0; i < maxRetries; i++) {
    const res = await fetch(url, options);

    if (res.status === 429) {
      const retryAfter = parseInt(res.headers.get("Retry-After") || "1");
      const backoff = retryAfter * Math.pow(2, i);
      await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, backoff * 1000));
      continue;
    }

    return res;
  }
  throw new Error("Rate limit exceeded after max retries");
}

​
IP Detection

Rate limits are tracked by client IP. The server checks headers in this order:
  1. X-Forwarded-For (first entry, if behind a reverse proxy)
  2. X-Real-IP
  3. Fallback: connection IP
