Rate limits
Request limits for the SnitchFeed HTTP API.
Overview
Limits apply per organization. Twitter and LinkedIn searches use separate counters. Exceeding a limit returns 429 Too Many Requests with a JSON body that may include retryAfter (seconds).
| Surface | Endpoint | Limit |
|---|---|---|
| X (Twitter) | POST /v1/data/twitter/searchTweets | 20 requests / 60s (per org) |
POST /v1/data/linkedin/searchPosts | 20 requests / 60s (per org) |
The window is rolling: each successful request consumes one token until the bucket refills.
Response headers
| Header | When present | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
X-RateLimit-Limit | Success | Max requests in the window (currently 20) |
X-RateLimit-Remaining | Success | Requests left in the current window |
X-RateLimit-Reset | Success | Unix timestamp when the window resets |
Retry-After | 429 response | Seconds to wait before retrying |
