Lindy Rate Limits
Overview
Comprehensive guide to understanding and managing Lindy API rate limits.
Prerequisites
- Lindy SDK installed
- Understanding of your plan's limits
- Access to usage dashboard
Rate Limit Tiers
Free Tier
| Resource | Limit | Window |
|---|---|---|
| API Requests | 100/min | Rolling |
| Agent Runs | 50/day | Daily |
| Concurrent Runs | 2 | Instant |
Pro Tier
| Resource | Limit | Window |
|---|---|---|
| API Requests | 1000/min | Rolling |
| Agent Runs | 1000/day | Daily |
| Concurrent Runs | 10 | Instant |
Enterprise
| Resource | Limit | Window |
|---|---|---|
| API Requests | Custom | Rolling |
| Agent Runs | Unlimited | - |
| Concurrent Runs | 100+ | Instant |
Instructions
Step 1: Check Current Usage
import { Lindy } from '@lindy-ai/sdk';
const lindy = new Lindy({ apiKey: process.env.LINDY_API_KEY });
async function checkUsage() {
const usage = await lindy.usage.current();
console.log('Current Usage:');
console.log(` API Requests: ${usage.apiRequests.used}/${usage.apiRequests.limit}`);
console.log(` Agent Runs: ${usage.agentRuns.used}/${usage.agentRuns.limit}`);
console.log(` Concurrent: ${usage.concurrent.active}/${usage.concurrent.limit}`);
return usage;
}
Step 2: Implement Rate Limiter
class RateLimiter {
private tokens: number;
private lastRefill: number;
private readonly maxTokens: number;
private readonly refillRate: number; // tokens per second
constructor(maxTokens: number, refillRate: number) {
this.maxTokens = maxTokens;
this.tokens = maxTokens;
this.refillRate = refillRate;
this.lastRefill = Date.now();
}
async acquire(): Promise<void> {
this.refill();
if (this.tokens < 1) {
const waitTime = (1 - this.tokens) / this.refillRate * 1000;
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, waitTime));
this.refill();
}
this.tokens -= 1;
}
private refill(): void {
const now = Date.now();
const elapsed = (now - this.lastRefill) / 1000;
this.tokens = Math.min(this.maxTokens, this.tokens + elapsed * this.refillRate);
this.lastRefill = now;
}
}
// Usage: 100 requests per minute
const limiter = new RateLimiter(100, 100 / 60);
async function rateLimitedRequest<T>(fn: () => Promise<T>): Promise<T> {
await limiter.acquire();
return fn();
}
Step 3: Handle Rate Limit Errors
async function withRetryOnRateLimit<T>(
fn: () => Promise<T>,
maxRetries = 5
): Promise<T> {
for (let attempt = 0; attempt < maxRetries; attempt++) {
try {
return await fn();
} catch (error: any) {
if (error.code === 'LINDY_RATE_LIMITED') {
const retryAfter = error.retryAfter || Math.pow(2, attempt);
console.log(`Rate limited. Retrying in ${retryAfter}s...`);
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, retryAfter * 1000));
continue;
}
throw error;
}
}
throw new Error('Max retries exceeded');
}
Output
- Usage monitoring implementation
- Client-side rate limiter
- Retry logic for rate limit errors
- Optimized API usage patterns
Error Handling
| Scenario | Strategy | Code |
|---|---|---|
| Near limit | Slow down | Reduce request rate |
| Hit limit | Wait | Respect Retry-After |
| Burst | Queue | Implement request queue |
Examples
Queue-Based Rate Limiting
class RequestQueue {
private queue: Array<() => Promise<void>> = [];
private processing = false;
private requestsThisMinute = 0;
private lastMinuteStart = Date.now();
async enqueue<T>(fn: () => Promise<T>): Promise<T> {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
this.queue.push(async () => {
try {
resolve(await fn());
} catch (e) {
reject(e);
}
});
this.processQueue();
});
}
private async processQueue(): Promise<void> {
if (this.processing) return;
this.processing = true;
while (this.queue.length > 0) {
if (Date.now() - this.lastMinuteStart > 60000) {
this.requestsThisMinute = 0;
this.lastMinuteStart = Date.now();
}
if (this.requestsThisMinute >= 100) {
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 1000));
continue;
}
const request = this.queue.shift()!;
this.requestsThisMinute++;
await request();
}
this.processing = false;
}
}
