API rate limits & best practices

Per-token per-minute limits, burst behavior, and how to stay under quotas.

fanmigo applies per-minute rate limits to authenticated creator API traffic. Each token stores its own rate_limit_per_minute; if unset, a default from configuration applies and is clamped to a safe maximum.

Tips

  • Batch work: download subscribers once, process locally, then upload changes in bulk instead of hammering list endpoints.
  • Cache immutable data (your profile slug, link IDs) instead of re-fetching every job run.
  • Handle 429 responses with exponential backoff.
  • Use webhooks for fanmigo → your systems when possible instead of polling.

The interactive API reference (linked from the creator dashboard) lists every route and payload shape—bookmark it for integration work.
