API Rate Limits

Enterprise API

Rate limits are applied per workspace (not per user)
When exceeded: HTTP
```
429 Too Many Requests
```
response
Retry behavior: respect the
```
Retry-After
```
header
No published rate numbers — contact Granola for workspace-specific limits

Zapier Integration

Zapier task limits are governed by your Zapier plan, not Granola
Granola does not throttle outbound Zapier triggers
For high-volume workspaces, add delay steps between Zap actions to avoid overwhelming downstream apps

Usage Monitoring

Check Usage in Granola

Click your avatar (bottom-left) > Settings

API Usage (Enterprise)

Monitor API usage through response headers:

  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GRANOLA_API_KEY" \
  | grep -i "rate-limit\|retry-after"

What Happens at Limits

Limit Hit	Behavior	Resolution

Free plan 14-day history	Older notes hidden (not deleted)	Upgrade to restore access
API rate limit (429)	Requests rejected	Wait for `Retry-After` period, reduce request frequency
Zapier task limit	Zaps paused	Upgrade Zapier plan or reduce trigger frequency
Workspace seat limit	Can't add users	Purchase additional seats or remove inactive users
