Rate limit on purge cache
Hi everyone 🙂
I'm using Cloudfare's CDN but i'm having some issue trying to find a value for the rate limiting
On this page : https://developers.cloudflare.com/fundamentals/api/reference/limits/
They tell it's 1200req/5min, but some specific API like purge cache have differents rates
So i've clicked on the link and for the free tier purge cache endpoint (im calling this
https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/zones/{zone}/purge_cache) they don't give any rate limit, i can find other rate limiting for tag invalidation and such
So does that mean my endpoint is limited by the global rate limit of 1200req/5min ?
Thanks for the help 🙂2 replies
