Question: Fill in the blank: Apps using OAuth are subject to a limit of ____ requests every 10 seconds.
- 100
- 200
- 300
- 400
Explanation
Apps using OAuth have a defined burst limit that controls short-term request volume. HubSpot sets this OAuth burst limit at 100 requests per 10 seconds per installed account. This limit helps protect platform stability and keeps API access consistent across connected apps. If an app exceeds the limit, requests may be throttled or return a rate-limit error. Rate-limit handling should be planned into integration logic to avoid failed requests.
Why the other options are incorrect
200 This is higher than the documented OAuth burst limit.
300 This is not the documented 10-second OAuth request limit.
400 This exceeds the documented OAuth burst limit for installed apps.
