Rate Limits & Quotas

Understand the rate limits and quotas for Sage API access.

100

Requests / Minute

10,000

Requests / Day

Important Notes

•Rate limits apply to Sage Intacct API (primary Sage API offering)
•Limits: 100 requests per minute, 10,000 requests per day
•These are standard throttling limits to prevent abuse
•Sage offers multiple products with different APIs - verify specific product for accurate limits
•Rate limits may vary based on subscription tier and user permissions

Best Practices

1.
Implement exponential backoff
When you receive a 429 error, wait before retrying with increasing delays.
2.
Cache responses when possible
Store frequently accessed data locally to reduce API calls.
3.
Use batch operations
Combine multiple operations into single requests where supported.
4.
Monitor your usage
Use the Primrose dashboard to track your API usage and set alerts.

Rate Limit Errors

What happens when you exceed limits

{
  "error": {
    "code": "rate_limit_exceeded",
    "message": "Too many requests",
    "retry_after": 60
  }
}

When rate limited, the response includes a retry_after value indicating how many seconds to wait before retrying.

Enterprise plans include higher rate limits and dedicated infrastructure.
