# Rate Limit

The Storyblok Management API is subject to rate limits to ensure fair usage and optimal performance. The following rate limits apply:

| Plan | Rate limit |
| --- | --- |
| Starter | 3 calls per second |
| Growth, Growth Plus, Premium, Elite | 6 calls per second |

> [!TIP]
> It is recommended to monitor the usage and follow the specified rate limits. The API will respond with an HTTP status error code 429 when the limit is exceeded. See [Errors](/docs/api/content-delivery/v2/getting-started/errors) for further reference.
