API Rules & Restrictions

D365BC · September 2022

May I know, what are the rules for calling APIs?

Is there any restrictions for no. of api request in a minute?

lets take a big example!

all these run in 1 batch ( 1 continues process)

first I call API to generate report list of csv file, which generate csv file for 500 transactions.

then I download that csv file via 2nd API and import the transactions in my system, all good

then I make a list of Report IDs and create PDFs for all 500 records with my 3rd API

then I use 4th API which will be in a loop so total 500 APIs to download pdfs one by one

it does not work, error is below.

how many requests we can send in 1 minute?

we are making your system robust, doing free testing for you 😊

Thanks Sara,

I checked my API requests, it was between 25-30 requests in a minute, still not working.

please think about it, no system can get success without a good API integration.

I have to think some other logic....
