Rate Limiting and Throttling Explanation of Rate Limits
Streetverify API has a rate limit of 100 requests per second to ensure fair usage and prevent abuse.
How to Handle Rate Limiting in Applications
To handle rate limiting, implement a retry mechanism with exponential backoff. This means if you receive a 429 Too Many Requests response, wait for a specified amount of time before retrying the request. Increase the wait time exponentially with each subsequent retry.
Example:
- First retry: Wait for 1 second.
- Second retry: Wait for 2 seconds.
- Third retry: Wait for 4 seconds
Examples and Use Cases
Streetverify API has a rate limit of 100 requests per second to ensure fair usage and prevent abuse.
from geopy.geocoders import GoogleV3
# Replace ‘your_api_key’ with your actual Google API key
geolocator = GoogleV3(api_key=’your_api_key’)
address = “1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA”
location = geolocator.geocode(address)
