Automation Anywhere Rate Limits

Rate limits for the Automation Anywhere Control Room API surface (Automation 360). Limits are per Control Room tenant and depend on edition, license size, and underlying infrastructure. Public docs do not publish numeric throttles; clients should implement retry-with-backoff and coordinate with their Control Room admin for sustained workloads.

Limits

see Control Room admin documentation
Limits scale with edition (Community, Cloud Starter, Pro, Enterprise) and Control Room size. Bot deployment, queue submission, and credential APIs may have separate per-endpoint limits.

bounded by configured bot pool / queue capacity
Throughput is gated by the licensed bot count rather than a request-per-second cap.

Policies

Backoff Strategy
Implement exponential backoff with jitter on 429 / 503. Honor Retry-After when present.
Token / Session Reuse
Authenticate once with the Control Room and reuse the bearer token until expiry rather than re-authenticating on every call.
Bot Capacity Sizing
Sustained throughput is limited by licensed bot count and Control Room infrastructure sizing, not solely by API throttles. Coordinate with Automation Anywhere support to size for peak load.
