Reqeust limitation

[yuan ming]

Hi Atlassian Team,

I have a question about the 'X-RateLimit-Limit','X-RateLimit-Resource' and 'X-RateLimit-NearLimit' for response header.

I can't get the Rate limit response headers when I reqeust any rest api, I want to know how can I get it when I request rest api?

The rate limit response headers you mentioned (X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Resource, X-RateLimit-NearLimit) are not necessarily returned on every single API response!

They typically start appearing when your usage is approaching the rate limit threshold. If your request volume is low, you may not see them at all in the response.

but when I request volume is approaching or exceeding the rate limit threshold and still can't see these response headers

I continued to request APIs and log request headers until I encountered an error of 429 too many requests, but I did not find these few request headers

these are all my response headers
