Billing and limits

Capability entries expose current credits and billing units. Check socq_account or socq account before a large job. Three independent controls can reject a request:
  • available account credits;
  • API-key hourly or daily credit limits;
  • API-key requests per minute.
A 402 response indicates insufficient balance. A 429 response includes rate or credit-window information and may include Retry-After. Reducing results_limit, using fewer platforms, or waiting for the limit window are safer than blind retries.
