Rate limit on Projects API

You can configure the rate limit per IP address for unauthenticated requests to the list all projects API.

To change the rate limit:

1. On the left sidebar, at the bottom, select Admin Area.
2. Select Settings > Network.
3. Expand Projects API rate limit.
4. In the Maximum requests per 10 minutes per IP address text box, enter the new value.
5. Select Save changes.

The rate limit:

• Applies per IP address.
• Doesn’t apply to authenticated requests.
• Can be set to 0 to disable rate limiting.

The default value of the rate limit is 400.

Requests over the rate limit are logged into the auth.log file.

For example, if you set a limit of 400, unauthenticated requests to the GET /projects API endpoint that exceed a rate of 400 within 10 minutes are blocked. Access to the endpoint is restored after ten minutes have elapsed.
