Maximum concurrent request in Jira REST API

Question

Hello Team,

I am using Jira Client SDK which I believe uses JIRA REST API to fetch issues and all.

I am have a rate limit of 500 requests per 5 minutes( which by-the-way is not mentioned on any official document).with this rate limit I am making 5 concurrent request and getting some data incorrect. I want to know what will be the max conccurent request limit for fetching issues using issueId.

If you need to handle concurrency such as when getting occasional traffic spikes, check https://www.websemaphore.com. Depending on your use case may be super helpful.

Hi there,

This documentation mentions that the REST API rate limit isn't published as "the computation logic is evolving continuously to maximize reliability and performance for customers".

* https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rate-limiting/

I find this page to be quite useful as it outlines how we should respond to being rate limited, eg, implementing retries, lowering request costs.

Hope this helps!
