# Rate limited

- **Code:** `rate_limited`
- **Status:** 429
- **If this was an order:** This request bought nothing
- **Send it again unchanged?** Yes — see What to do
- **.NET SDK:** `RateLimitedException`

## What it means

Too many requests in the current window. The limit is either one Anis staff set on your application or wallet — counting all requests, orders only, or reveals only — or Anis’s own protection. Nothing was recorded against the request. During enrolment it also means the proof has failed five times.

## What to do

- Wait for the time in `Retry-After` when it is present; otherwise back off exponentially.
- Then send again. An order may keep its operation id: a refusal at the door records nothing against it.
- During enrolment, after five failed proofs: ask Anis staff to restart the enrolment.
