The document mentions that Kite has rate limits of per second (and per minute for order which is 400 and 5000 per day)
Do they have any other rate limits per minute or per hour, as I see a lot of other brokers have the rate limits per minute and per hour which is crazy.
Also using multiple API keys can multiply the rate limits right (except for the order placement which is absolute 10 orders/sec across the account)
So, As long I adhere to these limits, even if I make 10000s of request per day (just a hypothetical number) it is not going to block me right?
For order-related requests, the applicable limits are 10 orders per second and 400 orders per minute; there are no separately documented per-hour request limits. Using multiple API keys does not bypass or multiply the account-level order-placement limit, and the 10 orders/second limit must be adhered to at the account level. As a risk-management measure, a single user/API key is also restricted to 5,000 orders per day across all segments and order varieties. Please refer to the rate limit API documentation.
For other endpoints, the documented limits are 1 request/second for Quote, 3 requests/second for Historical Data, and 10 requests/second for all other endpoints. A 429 Too Many Requests response indicates that the applicable API rate limit has been exceeded.
I don't know if you guys even look at the description or not? I know and understand that order is limited to 10 orders/sec irrespective of how many clients I am using.
My question is, if I use 5 clients, that means my rate limit is multiplied for other requests right? Like 5 requests/sec on quote, 15 requests/second on historical.
Obviously I am talking about round robin and not on single API key.
How hard is it understand this question? @salim_chisty
