}Rate Limiting
The general rate limit for unauthenticated accesses across all REC APIs is 20 calls per minute (one call every 3 seconds). Calls to other REC non-API services subject to rate limiting also contribute to this count. These other services may have lower rate limits. For authenticated users, the rate limit will be based on negotiations with REC Networks for API access.
