Graph API Outlook Service Data Volume Limitations?

Question

I see that the Microsoft Graph API for the Outlook service has the following limitations:

• 10,000 API requests per 10 minutes
• Four concurrent requests

Regarding fetching messages from an inbox, are there any data volume limitations I should be aware of?

Answer 1

Hi @Rob Buhler

This restriction is for each mailbox, is a limit on the number of requests within a certain period of time, generally for a single mailbox, if the amount of data in the mailbox is not very large, it is not necessary to send too many requests to obtain data, so it is difficult to be limited.

If you are using JSON batch processing, you need to consider this limitation and send up to four separate requests at a time.

For getting messages from your inbox, you can refer to the document, which returns 10 messages by default, the range of which you can customize the size, ranging from 1 to 1000, with the query parameter $top.

Hope this helps.
