Hi All,
I am enabling servicenow end point to someone for inbound and outbound request. But the requester will flood servicenow with request, before getting into any downtime/ failed api response I would like to know the maximum throughput of get/put servicenow endpoint. If anyone have any idea pls help me here.
Thanks,
Rajesh

Hi @RajeshS45028713,
ServiceNow enforces rate limits based on your subscription type and node count, which help ensure fair usage and system stability across all tenants.
Typical Limits:
• Per Instance: ~100,000 requests/hour (Enterprise plans)
• Per Node: ~25,000 requests/hour (Varies by licensing)
• Burst Limit: ~50–100 requests/second depending on performance tier
