API key

💡 Best-practice patterns

Avoid common mistakes. Save quota.

Respect rate-limit headers (Unlimited tier only)

Read X-RateLimit-Remaining on every response. Pause before you hit zero, or you'll trigger a 5-minute cooldown.

import time
import requests

API_KEY = "YOUR_API_KEY"

        # Pre-empt the cooldown: if the window is nearly full, sleep until reset
        remaining = int(resp.headers.get("X-RateLimit-Remaining", "60"))
        if remaining < 5:
            reset_ts = int(resp.headers.get("X-RateLimit-Reset", time.time() + 60))
            time.sleep(max(0, reset_ts - time.time()))

        if resp.status_code != 429:
            resp.raise_for_status()
            return resp.json()

        # Rate-limited: sleep the cooldown and retry
        cooldown = int(resp.headers.get("X-RateLimit-Cooldown", "300"))
        print(f"Cooldown active ({cooldown}s). Attempt {attempt + 1} of {MAX_RETRIES}.")
        time.sleep(cooldown)

    raise RuntimeError(f"Still rate-limited after {MAX_RETRIES} attempts; giving up.")

Avoid mid-job failures: hit /check_api_key_balance first and bail out early if you don't have enough credit.
