API rate limiting insufficient for reseller use cases

7/10 High

Railway's API is rate-limited to 1000 requests/hour and tied to individual accounts or teams, making it inadequate for resellers managing multiple clients. The API schema is also optimized for single-tenant use rather than multi-tenant operations.

Query: “What are the most common pain points with Railway for developers in 2025?”4/7/2026

The tokens are bound to individual accounts or teams, limiting the flexibility required for a reseller managing several clients. With a cap of 1000 requests per hour, the API's rate limiting may not be sufficient for the higher demands typical in a reseller setup.
