When do I exceed the service protection API limit?
If either limits are exceeded within the preceding 300 seconds, a service protection API Limit error will be returned on subsequent requests to protect the service until the Retry-After duration has ended.

Why are there API limits for interactive clients?
The limits should not affect normal users of interactive clients. Only client applications that perform extraordinary API requests should be affected. The limits provide a level of protection from random and unexpected surges in request volumes that threaten the availability and performance characteristics of the Microsoft Dataverse platform.
Is there a limit to how many requests per minute?
It is not expected that a typical user of an interactive application will be able to send 1,200 requests per minute to exceed this limit unless the application enables users to perform bulk operations.
When is migration data throughput highest in SharePoint?
Migration data throughput is highest during off-peak hours, which are typically nights and weekends in your region’s time zone. Your region’s time zone is determined by where your SharePoint Online tenant is set up.
When do Dataverse operations not use the public API?
Dataverse operations invoked on the sandbox service do not use the public API endpoints. If your application performs operations that trigger custom logic, the number of requests sent by plug-ins or custom workflow activities will not be counted towards service protection API limits.
