# Ratelimits

Ratelimits for the application API

The Application API has a default rate limit of 60 requests per minute. You can track the maximum requests and requests left using the headers below

| Header                | Description                           |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
| X-RateLimit-Limit     | Maximum limit of requests per minute  |
| X-RateLimit-Remaining | Maximum remaining requests per minute |

If you wish to define custom rate limits, you may define them inside the ENV file on your application.

edit `/var/www/wemx/.env` and add

```
API_RATELIMIT=120
