# Rate Limit Policies

> Dynamic rate limit policies

Dynamic enforces rate limits based upon IP address, project environment, and certain endpoints to protect against attacks and to prevent abuse of Dynamic's platform. These limits are subject to change.

## Errors

Requests returning a `429` status code have been rate limited.

```json theme={"system"}
{
  "message": "Rate limit exceeded",
  "code": 429
}
```

## Rate limit categories

* IP-based rate limits
* Project environment-based rate limits
* Endpoint-based rate limits

## SDK rate limits

All endpoints used by the SDK prefixed by `/sdk` are subject to the following limits.

* 100 requests per minute per IP
* 10000 requests per minute per project environment

### In addition the following endpoints have these limits
