HealthEquity does not publish a public API rate-limit document. Throttling is governed by the employer / benefits-admin partner agreement and is likely tightened during open-enrollment windows.

Policies

Backoff Strategy
Honor Retry-After on 429 and back off with exponential jitter on transient 5xx.
Open-Enrollment Capacity
Open-enrollment windows drive peak load; coordinate with the HealthEquity partner-integration team ahead of October.
HIPAA Boundaries
All limits apply within the HIPAA / PHI boundary; logging and retry behavior should respect minimum-necessary principles.
