429 - Too Many Requests, is this mean I reach the date request limit? I just want to confirm how yo
429 - Too Many Requests, is this mean I reach the date request limit? I just want to confirm how you define one request. For example, if I run ld.get_history(universe="AAPL.O=", interval="1min", start="2025-09-15", end="2025-09-16"), does that count as a single request?

Before we were receiving the following headers X-RateLimit-Limit-day X-RateLimit-Remaining-day which we use in order to manage our requests, but now the response seems to have changed, and we're not getting those headers…

rate limit when requesting history via the LSEG Data Library
I gather that when requesting historical pricing, every stock is being requested individually, even when requesting one date, is that correct? E.g. if I just ask for Russell 3000 stocks since the start of June, I'm making 3,000 separate requests? That at least seems to be what is happening from debug logs. I ask partly…
