Rate Limits

Rate Limits

Our rate limits are implemented in three ways: IP, low vs. high limit endpoints and subscription plan.

• Low limit endpoints (write-heavy operations)
  • create query
  • update query
  • private query
  • unprivate query
  • archive query
  • unarchive query
  • execute query
  • create table
  • insert into table
  • upload CSV
  • delete table
• High limit endpoints (read-heavy operations)
  • read query
  • get execution result
  • get execution result CSV
  • get execution status
  • cancel execution

Dimension		Limit
Per IP		1000 requests per second (rps)
Free	Low limit	15 requests per minute (rpm)
Free	High limit	40 rpm
Plus	Low limit	70 rpm
Plus	High limit	200 rpm
Premium	Low limit	350 rpm
Premium	High limit	1000 rpm
Enterprise		Please contact us!

Rate limits for different dimensions are separate but can be utilized independently. For example, on the Free plan, you have a low limit of 15 requests per minute and a high limit of 40 requests per minute. You can use both types of requests in the same minute, effectively having a combined limit of 55.

Data Return Limit

Dune internally has a maximum query result size limit (which currently is 8GB, but subject to increase in the future). If your query yields more than 8GB of data, the result will be truncated in storage. In such cases, pulling the result data (using pagination) but without specifying allow_partial_results set to true will trigger an error message: “error”: “Partial Result, please request with ‘allows_partial_results=true’”. If you wish to retrieve partial results, you can pass the parameter allow_partial_results=true. But please make sure you indeed want to fetch the truncated result.
