Confluence REST API Pricing

[Ali Mohammad]

Hi, This is regarding the usage and pricing model for Confluence REST API. We already have confluence license, and as part of that we are planning to make use of REST API provided by Confluence. Could you please confirm any additional charge for using REST APIs.

Thanks,

Hi @Ali Mohammad 

There's no additional pricing to use the confluence API. once you have a licensed user, you can simply use the API. however there's a limit set on overusing the API resource which throttles from time to time. you will notice this when you run across a 429 error.

Thank You, could you please let me know what is the limit of API calls Per Month? With that it will be helpful in integration and as well as usage. 

And one another thing, what if, if it crosses the threshold in-terms of pricing?

Thanks,

Hi @Ali Mohammad 

There's no cost imposed even though you overuse the API and no limit per month. The only effect is that the API will start failing when overused. I would suggest you limit your API request to 50 concurrent request per minute to avoid hitting that 429 error.

[Ali Mohammad]

Hmmm.... Got it. Basically it's a limitation on concurrency. Per Minute these many API calls only Ex: 50. If it crosses like within a minute if i make 51st API call, will get 429 error.

Anyway thanks a lot, it is very helpful. appreciate your support.

Thanks & Regards
