Hi, the docs says “Our API has a rate limit of 5 requests per second per account.”
What is meant by ‘account’?
I have been testing with a single key, and I am not experiencing any rate limiting when I do testing. I am although not sure if I can rely on that for production.
Any guidance on this? The api response also does not provide any related headers in this regards

Hey Vesin, account means your ActiveCampaign account. So if you have one ActiveCampaign account, it means there is a rate limit of 5 requests per second usually, if you aren’t experiencing any rate limiting, that’s great!
