# Platform rate limit administration

> View default rate limits and configure per-tenant overrides from the platform console.

The platform rate limits page lets administrators view the system-wide default limits and create per-tenant overrides when a tenant needs higher (or lower) throughput than the defaults allow.

<Info>
  This page is for platform administrators managing rate limits across tenants. For tenant-level rate limit documentation — including tier quotas, headers, and retry strategies — see [Rate limits and quotas](/ops/limits).
</Info>

## Default rate limits

The top section displays the four default rate limit scopes that apply to every tenant unless an override is configured:

| Scope                  | Default (req/min) | Description                                          |
| :--------------------- | :---------------- | :--------------------------------------------------- |
| **General API**        | 1,000             | Standard CRUD, query, and list endpoints             |
| **Verification**       | 500               | Credential and attestation verification endpoints    |
| **Minting**            | 200               | Attestation and credential issuance endpoints        |
| **Governance / Admin** | 100               | Policy changes, key management, and admin operations |

All limits are enforced per tenant. See [Rate limits and quotas](/ops/limits) for per-endpoint limits and burst capacity details.

## Per-tenant overrides

Below the defaults, a table lists every tenant that has a custom rate limit override. Each row shows the tenant name, scope, and the overridden limit value.

### Adding an override

<Steps>
  <Step title="Click Add Override">
    Click **Add Override** above the overrides table. A dialog appears with a tenant selector.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select a tenant">
    Choose the tenant you want to configure from the dropdown. The list includes all registered tenants.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set limits">
    Adjust the rate limit value for each scope. The form pre-fills with the current defaults so you only need to change the scopes that require an override.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    Click **Save** to apply the override. Changes take effect immediately.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Editing an existing override

Click the edit icon on any override row to open the edit dialog. Adjust the per-scope limits and save. You can also remove overrides entirely — when removed, the tenant falls back to the platform defaults.

### Bulk updates

Select multiple tenants using the checkboxes and click **Bulk Edit** to apply the same override values to all selected tenants at once. This is useful when onboarding a group of enterprise tenants that share the same throughput requirements.

<Tip>
  Use per-tenant overrides for enterprise customers who need higher limits. Avoid setting overrides below the defaults unless you are intentionally restricting a tenant's access.
