Retool Rate Limits

Retool exposes a Management API (apps, themes, resources, folders, spaces, source control, users/groups/permissions, SSO) and a SCIM 2.0 API for identity-provider provisioning. Public Retool documentation does not publish per-second / per-minute rate-limit numbers for these admin APIs; throughput is bounded primarily by plan-tied workflow-run quotas and the per-tenant deployment.

Policies

Tenant-Scoped
Retool API access is scoped to the customer tenant; all administrative calls are authenticated as a Retool API token tied to the org.
Plan-Bound Workflow Runs
The most consequential consumption ceiling is the workflow-runs quota, set by the active subscription plan rather than HTTP throttling.
SCIM Recommendation
Retool documentation recommends the Management API for automation when possible, with SCIM 2.0 used specifically for identity-provider integration.
