Zero Callers Rate Limited in 24 Hours. 6,500+ Calls and 9.7 GB Served, After the TigZig API Limits Went Up.

Zero API callers rate limited on the TigZig public APIs in the last 24 hours. 6,500+ calls, 9.7 GB served, zero refusals, after the limits went up.

This is after a short period where at the peak, one in four API calls was getting refused. Old rate limit and concurrency configurations never got updated. Now fixed across the pipeline from the edge, proxy to the app.

And the API servers have been busy busy lately...after chilling out for a long time when there were very few users.

And the three busiest surfaces get used in completely different ways.

Mutual funds (MFPRO) is the largest by call volumes and most callers use it two ways. Some callers pull NAVs scheme by scheme (or batches), others take the whole database in a single file, along with the scheme master - which by the way is also updated 3x a day with latest AMFI data. Roughly equally divided between parquet and CSV format. Most of the calls to the NAV path look like scripts on a schedule, most likely to update trackers and tools. And that's exactly one of the uses the API was designed for.

Yahoo Finance (YFIN) is the 2nd largest by call volume, and get-all-prices is the most used path. By the way, it's a thin wrapper over the yfinance package, and the code is open if you want to run your own.

Tremor is almost entirely bulk. Callers take the whole macro database, global and India, a few hundred indicators.

Downloads carry their own limit, tighter than the query limits, because a download is heavy. Range requests have started arriving, so that limit is in the process of being revised significantly upwards as we speak.

Hand it to your agent

If you would rather not click through any of this, hand it to your agent.

Paste into Claude, ChatGPT or any other AI Agent (Cowork / Coders):

Go to api.tigzig.com. I want to pull prices from yahoo finance and navs for
mutual funds and update my tracker. help me set it up end to end. but first
go and test the apis that they work
