This feature is only available for AI gateway users.
The user-level rate limit helps you control the LLM usage of each user. You can set a rate limit of requests per minute for each user and we will block the API calls that exceed the limit.

​
Why user-level rate limit?

  • Prevent random users from abusing your system
  • Control the cost of your LLM usage

​
How to set user-level rate limit

"customer_params": {
        "customer_identifier": "xxxx", // The user you want to set the rate limit for
        "rate_limit": 100 // The rate limit of the user, requests per minute
    },
