Hi Clay team, do you plan to lower the rate limit ? It would be a game changer for APIs that depend on LinkedIn 💜 thank you

Hi Sayli, I think of APIs like Pronto :)) They allow you to enrich companies and profiles with Linkedin data, but therefore has a recommended rate limit of around 30 requests/min to prevent your account from being banned. And as your rate limit is minimum 5 request/seconds so way too high, we have to request them manually. You can imagine how much it's time consuming if you have thousands of profiles. That rate limit doesn't make sense for these APIs. If you could lower the minimum rate limit to like 1 request every 2 seconds it would be a huuuuge user experience improvement for us, APIs users. Thank you so much 💜

Malaury - Do you mind sending the link (url) to the table so that I can take a look?

No, you already have the feature we need ! Here it is again. What we need if the lowest custom rate limit possible to be lower than it currently is (for now it is minimum 5 requests/sec, but we need it to be like only 30 requests/min) :))
