Antero Resources Rate Limits

Antero Resources does not operate a first-party API. The reachable data surface (SEC EDGAR for CIK 0001433270) is throttled by the SEC's published fair-access policy: 10 requests per second, with a User-Agent header identifying the consumer required on every call. Limits apply to the SEC endpoint, not to Antero itself.

Applies to all data.sec.gov and www.sec.gov endpoints. Exceeding the limit results in HTTP 429 / 403 responses; a descriptive User-Agent header is required on every request.

Policies

User-Agent Required
The SEC requires every EDGAR API request to include a User-Agent header identifying the consumer (e.g. `Acme Corp [email protected]`). Requests without a meaningful User-Agent may be blocked.
Fair-Access Throttling
The SEC enforces a soft 10 requests-per-second ceiling per IP across EDGAR endpoints. Sustained excess traffic can result in temporary IP blocks; back off on 429.
Cache-Friendly
EDGAR encourages caching of immutable filing artifacts; the submissions JSON is updated incrementally so consumers can poll daily rather than per-second.
