Is it possible to request an increased rate limit for the Companies House API?
Our usage is generally low but occasionally bursty leading to us hitting rate limits.
I reached out to enquiries@companieshouse.gov.uk and was directed to post here. Happy to share full details via a private channel.
Best,
Oli
Hello Oli,
We are very limited in what what we can offer as a rate increase - basically, the maximum would be a doubling of the current API rate (due to the popularity of the service concerned).
However, we can only offer that in certain specific situations.
For us to consider your request further, can you please respond with details of which API services you use, along with a detailed description of your business model to xml@companieshouse.gov.uk
