Business plan monthly API rate limits


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?
