description: API rate limits for the Moveworks Events API
---------------------------------------------------------

By default, you can make up to **120 requests per minute** through the API. Each request can notify up to **500 recipients**.

Your rate limit is applied to your entire organization. If the rate limit is reached, a `429` status code will be returned.

<Note>
  We recommend updating your workflow to sleep for 60 seconds and then retry the requests if a `429` is encountered.
</Note>

Messages will be delivered according to your organization's chat platform behavior.

If you need a rate limit increase, please contact your account team.
