# Lokalise Rate Limits
## Overview
Lokalise enforces a strict **6 requests per second** rate limit across all API endpoints (`https://api.lokalise.com/api2`). Exceeding this triggers a `429 Too Many Requests` response. This skill covers request queuing with 170ms minimum spacing, exponential backoff for 429 recovery, bulk operation throttling, and proactive quota monitoring via response headers.
## Prerequisites
- `@lokalise/node-api` SDK installed (`npm install @lokalise/node-api`)
- API token configured (read or read/write scope depending on operations)
- Node.js 18+ for native `AbortController` support in timeout handling
## Instructions
### 1. Understand the Rate Limit Headers
