Possible to rate limit API calls per API token?

I have a process that is maxing out our API rate limit, which causes other requests made by other processes to fail. Each of those processes uses a separate API token.

Is there any way to set a limit per token? I don't see that option in the Admin UI but maybe I'm missing something?

Thanks

Hey Gregory,
 
API rate limits are generally applied at the account level, but there are a few endpoints where the rate limits are applied on a “per user”  basis. You can see those endpoints here. Outside those mentioned in the docs, it’s not currently possible to rate limit on a per token basis.
 
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
