Bulkgrid has two related but different operational concepts:
  • request-level limits such as 429 Rate limited
  • product usage limits such as pages, conversions, sources, and concurrency

What is clearly implemented today

The product currently tracks or enforces usage around areas such as:
  • sources
  • concurrent runs
  • crawled pages
  • converted files
  • indexed pages
  • API calls
The API can also return 429 responses.

Practical client guidance

  • keep polling intervals conservative
  • implement backoff and jitter on 429
  • avoid bursty user-driven traffic directly against the API
  • push long-running work through your backend or job layer
