API Limits

Updated on March 31, 2026

Understand the limits of the Signalgrid API
including request limits and subscription usage quotas.

Signalgrid enforces a small number of limits to keep the platform stable and reliable for everyone.
These limits protect the infrastructure from abuse and ensure notifications are delivered consistently.



API Rate Limit

To prevent abuse, Signalgrid enforces a per-user rate limit on API requests.

The current limit is:

Limit
Value
Requests per minute
1000

This limit applies to API requests, not individual device deliveries.

A single request can notify multiple devices subscribed to a channel. For example, if a channel has 20 devices subscribed, one API request will notify all 20 devices while still counting as only one request against the rate limit.



Subscription Notification Limits

Notification limits also depend on your subscription plan. These limits apply per user account and reset every month.

Plan
Monthly Limit
Approx. Daily Limit
Free
100
~3 per day
Single
10,000
~333 per day
Teams
100,000
~3,333 per day

This limit applies to API requests, not individual device deliveries.

A single request can notify multiple devices subscribed to a channel. For example, if a channel has 20 devices subscribed, one API request will notify all 20 devices while still counting as only one request against the limit.
