API key request counter

Each authenticated Affiliate REST request adds 1 to its Kraken API key request counter. Each API key has a separate counter. These limits apply to the Affiliate REST endpoints: Requests that exceed the maximum are rejected until the counter decays. Back off before retrying a rate-limited request.

Polling

A trade day’s figures can change when activity is reported later. Use revision (day request, first page) to see whether your figures changed, then re-check the trailing 35 days. Hourly or daily polling is enough for trading figures. Sub-minute polling will not see new trading figures. Walk pages with cursor rather than retrying the same request. revision tracks trading data only. New enrollments and changes to data-sharing settings do not advance it. Poll the full roster with all_users=true to discover quiet signups and opt-outs, even when revision has not changed. The roster reflects enrollment and data-sharing settings available when your request is processed.
