# Rate Limits & Client ID

KyberSwap APIs do not require authentication. There are no API keys, tokens, or secrets. However, all APIs support an optional client identifier header that affects your rate limit tier.

Clients are recommended to include the `x-client-id` header in every request, using your app or company name as the value.

* **\[V1] Get Swap Route**
  * **Header:** `x-client-id`
* **\[V1] Post Swap Route For Encoded Data**
  * **Header:** `x-client-id`

For example:

* \[V1] `GET` /routes
  * Header
    * `x-client-id: MyAwesomeApp`
* \[V1] `POST` /route/build
  * Header
    * `x-client-id: MyAwesomeApp`

This will enable us to serve you better as we continuously strive to improve our API. 

### Requesting a Higher Limit

By default, Aggregator API allows **3 rps** (requests per second), Limit Order API allows **10 rps**, and ZaaS API allows **1 rps.**

If you wish to get your client-id whitelisted and to increase the rate limit, contact the KyberSwap BD team at [**business@kyber.network**](mailto:business@kyber.network)**.**

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.kyberswap.com/developer-guide/start-here/rate-limits-and-client-id.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
