Introduction
A Rate Limiting policy limits the number of requests an API accepts within a window of time. The API rejects requests that exceed the limit. You can configure multiple limits with window sizes ranging from milliseconds to years.
Generally, we configure the Rate Limiting policy from the AnyPoint Platform API Manager, but we can enforce Rate Limiting or any other Policy using API Manager API. MuleSoft provides a set of APIs that can be used to enforce policies in API Manager.
