Headers
RateLimit-Remaininginteger, (int32), >= 0

Requests left in the most constrained policy window that applies to this request.

RateLimit-Resetinteger, (int32), >= 0

On 429, seconds until the most constrained policy frees up; it equals Retry-After there. On a successful response it reports the length of that policy's window rather than the time left in the current one, so treat it as the window size, not as a countdown — the counter to pace against is RateLimit-Remaining.

RateLimit-Policystring

Most constrained policy applied to the request, as <limit>;w=<window in seconds>.

Example:"10;w=60"
ETagstring

Version tag of the returned resource. Send it back in If-Match on the next PATCH or DELETE.

Request identifier for support and log correlation.
