We are looking to interact with millions of files. We have noticed on the box site that Enterprise business plan has a limit of 100,000 API calls per month.

Can this rate be increased?

If so, what can it be increased to?

Hello -


Yes, you can purchase additional calls. We in developer relations don’t have the most up to date sales information. You will want to contact a sales representative in order to get more answers!


Thanks,

Alex, Box Developer Advocate


Hey,
Is this 100k limit apply for enterprise api (admin_logs_streaming)? 
What is the suggested poll interval to hit this steaming api?

There are currently a few distinct rate limits in place within the Box API.

  • General API calls
  • 1000 API requests per minute, per user
  • Uploads
  • 240 file upload requests per minute, per user
  • Search
  • Two additional limits are applied on top of the basic rate limit
  • 60 searches per minute, per user
  • 12 searches per second, per enterprise
  • Box Sign
  • Create and resend sign request: 100 requests per minute, per user
  • Get sign request: 1000 requests per minute, per user
