# Rate Limits

## List Workspace Rate Limits

**GET** `/v1/organizations/workspaces/{workspace_id}/rate_limits`

List a workspace's rate limits.

By default, returns only the groups and limiter types that have a
workspace-level override. With `include_inherited=true`, returns every
group with organization-level limits the workspace can see, listing for
each the values it inherits from the organization as well as its own
overrides. Each value's `source` says which it is.

When `limit` is omitted, every matching entry is returned in a single
page; when `limit` truncates the result, follow `next_page` to fetch
the remaining entries.

### Path parameters

- `workspace_id: string`

  The ID of the workspace.

### Query parameters

- `group_type: optional "batch" or "files" or "model_group" or 3 more`

  Filter by group type.

  - `"batch"`

  - `"files"`

  - `"model_group"`

  - `"skills"`

  - `"token_count"`

  - `"web_search"`

- `include_inherited: optional boolean`

  Also list the limiter values the workspace inherits from the organization, including groups with no workspace-level override.

  default: false

- `limit: optional number`

  Maximum number of items to return per page. Ranges from `1` to `1000`.

  When omitted, every remaining entry is returned in a single page and `next_page` is `null`.

  minimum: 1, maximum: 1000

- `page: optional string`

  Opaque cursor from a previous response's `next_page`.

### Headers

- `"anthropic-version": optional string`

  The version of the Claude API you want to use.

## Set Workspace Rate Limits

**POST** `/v1/organizations/workspaces/{workspace_id}/rate_limits/{rate_limit_id}`

Set or clear rate-limit overrides for one rate-limit group in a workspace.

Only the limiter types named in `limits` change: an integer `value` sets
that type's override and `null` clears it. Types not named keep their
current value. A value above the organization's own limit is stored, but
the organization limit still applies, so the lower of the two is
enforced.

Returns the targeted group's entry with this request applied, in the shape
`GET /v1/organizations/workspaces/{workspace_id}/rate_limits` returns.
Changes take effect within about an hour.
