CloudSSO limits the queries per second (QPS) of an API operation for a single user and all users. If the number of calls to an API operation per second exceeds a specific QPS limit, throttling is triggered. Throttling may interrupt your services. Therefore, make API calls at a proper frequency. This topic describes the QPS limits on an API operation of CloudSSO.

Maximum QPS per user | Maximum QPS per user refers to the total number of calls that a single Alibaba Cloud
account, and the RAM users and RAM roles within the Alibaba Cloud account can make
to an API operation per second.
For example, the maximum QPS per user for the CreateFolder operation is 20.

If the upper limit is exceeded, throttling is triggered. |
Maximum QPS for all users | Maximum QPS for all users refers to the total number of calls that all Alibaba Cloud
