Summary

Requests to the API are rate limited in order to limit any potential abuse and ensure responsiveness. This error code is returned when too many requests have been made within the allotted time.

The response will send a header, `Retry-After`, indicating how long, in minutes, you must wait before your limit resets and you can reissue your request.
