# Rate Limit in Developer Portal

<BeforeYouBegin />

Rate Limit shows your API usage against your limits, per marketplace and service, so you can see when you're approaching them — before you get throttled. For how the limits themselves work (burst vs. main window, what counts against them), see [Rate Limits & Usage][rate-limiting].

## Step 1 — Choose a marketplace, service, and time range

Go to **Rate Limit → Analytics**. Three filters control what you see:

- **Marketplace** — noon, namshi, dubai mall, or noon one. Defaults to **noon**.
- **Service** — the API service to inspect. Options depend on the marketplace you picked; changing marketplace resets this filter.
- **Time Range** — Last 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or 60 days.

**Success check:** The summary cards and table below only populate once you've picked **both** a Service and a Time Range — until then they show a dash.

## Step 2 — Read the summary and the traffic chart

With filters set, you'll see:

- **Total requests** — all requests made in the selected period.
- **Throttled requests** — requests rejected for exceeding a rate limit.
- **Throttled rate** — the percentage of requests that were throttled.
- A chart of request volume over the selected time range.

## Step 3 — Drill into a specific endpoint

Below the chart, a table lists every endpoint the selected service received traffic on, with its method, total requests, throttled requests, throttled rate, and a **Quota Usage** progress bar (how close it is to its configured limit).

Click an endpoint's path to open its own analytics page, scoped to that endpoint, marketplace, and time range (with its own Time Range selector). It additionally shows a **Rate Limit Configuration** table — the endpoint's configured **Type** (Burst), **Requests** limit, and **Time limit** in seconds.

:::info Aggregated, not real-time
The configuration and usage numbers here are aggregated periodically — expect a short delay between a request happening and it showing up on this page. Don't rely on it to catch throttling live.
