The NCCR Evolving Language API has the following limitations in place to ensure the stability and performance of the API:

- Rate Limiting: To prevent abuse and ensure fair usage of the API, we have rate limiting in place that limits the number of requests that a user can make to the API within a certain period of time. If you exceed the rate limit, you will receive a “Too Many Requests” error.

- Data Access Restrictions: Our API provides access to a comprehensive database of linguistic research data. However, some datasets may be restricted based on their sensitivity or legal restrictions. If you are unable to access a particular dataset, it may be due to a data access restriction.

If you require increased API access beyond the default rate limit, please contact us at datascience_request@evolvinglanguage.ch to discuss your needs and request additional access.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in adhering to our API limitations. These limitations help us maintain the stability and performance of the API for all users.
