Rate limits

What are rate limits?

Rate limits are custom rules you can set that prevent users from abusing the OpenAI endpoints in your app. The rate limit builder lets you set rules on the frequency of API requests or on the amount of a resource used over time (e.g. chat tokens, minutes of audio).

How to add rate limits

Before adding a rate limit make sure your propject is configured. Click the rate limit link in the left sidebar, then click the "Add new rate limit" button. Use the form to tailor rules to your specific use cases.
