Please note, we are in the process of retiring the public api. The public api, as well as its documentation and playground, will remain available until July 28th, 2025. This change will not affect integration partners using our partner api.


If you're an Artsy partner gallery, reach out to your Artsy Liaison or contact our Support team for assistance.

Rate Limiting

Artsy API is currently rate-limited to 5 requests per second per client application ID. API calls will return an HTTP 429 Too many requests error when your client is over that limit. You will not be blacklisted by default, only throttled.

We currently do not offer a way to raise this limit, please contact us if you need help.
