## Important Notes

* The rate limit for the API is set at **five queries per second (QPS)**. Please ensure your application or software complies with this limit to avoid service disruption or suspension of your API keys.
* Attribution to Minted is required when using the public API. Please refer to the [Brand Assets & Usage](https://help.minted.network/important-references/brand-assets-and-usage) article for guidelines on adequately attributing Minted.
* Minted reserves the right to revoke or limit API keys at any time for any reason, including but not limited to misuse or abuse of the API.

### Limitation and Caching

The API rate limit is 5 QPS, and the cache will refresh every five minutes at most. As a result, collection stats may reflect data up to five minutes old, plus any additional time the data was cached. Minted does not guarantee the accuracy or timeliness of the data returned by the API and is not liable for any damages or losses resulting from its use.
