D2 Vendors API performance changes coming soon #1887

Closed jshaffstall-bng closed 5 months ago

Hey Destiny API developer community,

Some of you may have noticed that the Destiny 2 GetVendors API call can often take a long time to return a response. During periods of extreme load on the D2 game services, these calls can time-out after ~10 seconds and return an error, which is not great.

We want to make the D2 Vendor APIs more reliable with faster response times and a decreased likelihood of timing out, so we are planning to introduce the following changes before the release of The Final Shape.

Too long, didn't read:

The current plan is to deploy these changes on Tuesday, May 21st, but we could push that back a little bit if this breaks your apps too much and you want more time to update your call patterns.

Can you share what the acceptable rate limit for a single client calling GetVendor should be?

Sorry for the late answer. I would say as fast as you're able to without getting rate limited :P
