The Everflow API enforces rate limits to ensure platform stability. Limits are shared among all users within the same organization.

​
Request quotas

User typeRequests per second
Network20
Affiliate5
Advertiser5
Partner5
Rate limits reset every 30 seconds. Every response includes headers indicating your current quota:
HeaderDescription
X-RateLimit-LimitTotal requests allowed per 30-second window
X-RateLimit-RemainingRequests still available in the current window
Once you exhaust your limit, all requests return a 429 Too Many Requests error until the window resets.

​
Concurrent request limits

The /v1/networks/reporting/* endpoints allow a maximum of 10 concurrent requests. Additional concurrent requests will return an error. Wait for in-flight requests to complete before sending new ones.

​
BigQuery quotas

Reporting requests that include certain columns trigger a BigQuery query instead of a standard database lookup. These have separate rate limits:
User typeQueries per hour
Network1,000
Affiliate1,000
Advertiser1,000
The hourly limit is enforced on a rolling 60-minute window (not aligned to clock hours).

​
Columns that trigger BigQuery

A reporting request triggers a BigQuery call when it includes at least one of these columns: Geolocation: Country, Region, City, DMA, Carrier, ISP, Connection Type, Postal Code, Is Proxy Device: Platform, OS Version, Device Type, Browser, Device Brand, Language, Device Model, Device Make Offer: Offer Group, Offer URL, Event Name, Advertiser Event Name, Payout Type, Payout Amount, Revenue Type, Revenue Amount, Custom Payout Revenue Miscellaneous: Adv1–Adv5, Sub1–Sub5, Source ID, Project ID, Referrer, Coupon Code, Tracking Domain, Order ID, Attribution Method, Account Referred By
