Claude Platform on April 24, 2026: the Rate Limits API ships in the Admin API, letting teams programmatically query rate limits configured for their organization and per-workspace overrides via /v1/organizations/rate_limits.
The Rate Limits API lands in the Admin API. It returns the rate limits configured for your organization and per-workspace overrides — grouped by limiter type (model_group, batch, token_count, files, skills, web_search). Useful for keeping gateways and proxies in sync, powering internal alerting against the Usage and Cost API, and auditing workspace configuration. Read-only — Console is still where you configure overrides.
Why: Gateways, proxies, and internal alerting tools had to hardcode rate-limit values that drifted when Anthropic adjusted them, with no programmatic way to read current org and workspace limits.
What: Releases the Rate Limits API — a new Admin API endpoint returning configured rate limits for the organization and each workspace, grouped by limiter type.
How: GET /v1/organizations/rate_limits with an Admin API key (sk-ant-admin...); per-workspace via /v1/organizations/workspaces/{workspace_id}/rate_limits.
