## When you go over a limit [#when-you-go-over-a-limit]

The API answers `429` with a message saying which limit was reached. The message follows `Accept-Language`:

```json
{ "error": "Limit of 60 requests per minute. Wait a moment." }
```

Wait and try again, with growing intervals: 2 seconds, then 4, 8, 16. If it's the daily limit, stop until the next day.

## Normal use [#normal-use]

Normal use, like an assistant that organizes notes or a script that creates the day's page, stays far below these numbers. Getting around limits with several tokens or several accounts violates the terms and leads to a ban. See [Fair use](/en/termos/uso-justo).
