Apollo Rate Limits
Overview
Implement robust rate limiting and backoff strategies for Apollo.io API to maximize throughput while avoiding 429 errors.
Prerequisites
- Valid Apollo.io API credentials
- Node.js 18+ or Python 3.10+
- Completed
apollo-install-authsetup
Instructions
Follow these high-level steps to implement apollo-rate-limits:
- Review the prerequisites and ensure your environment is configured
- Follow the detailed implementation guide for step-by-step code examples
- Validate your implementation against the output checklist below
For full implementation details, load: Read(plugins/saas-packs/apollo-pack/skills/apollo-rate-limits/references/implementation-guide.md)
Output
- Rate limiter class with token bucket algorithm
- Exponential backoff with jitter
- Request queue with concurrency control
- Priority-based request scheduling
- Rate limit monitoring and alerts
Error Handling
| Scenario | Strategy |
|---|---|
| 429 response | Use Retry-After header |
| Burst limit hit | Add minimum spacing |
| Sustained limit | Queue with concurrency |
| Network timeout | Exponential backoff |
