Frequently Asked Questions
What limitations do businesses face with publicly available UPS APIs?
Public UPS APIs provide data access with these limitations:
- Rate limits: Publicly available APIs generally limit the number of requests you can make within a period (per second, minute, hour, or day) to prevent system abuse and ensure fair resource distribution.
- Access controls: Most public APIs limit access to features, data, or endpoints based on user tiers. Full functionality is limited to paid users, with the top-tier features reserved for a small circle of shipping partners like Shipium.
- Performance constraints: Public API users often experience slower response times and less reliable service than paid tiers, especially during peak usage. They may also face limitations with staggered data and scalability options.
