Yammer API limits

Question

Yammer rest api documentation says that limit is 10 requests in 10 seconds per user per app.

Question: What is the user here? Is it IP address that makes request or bearer token for currently authenticated yammer user?

If all our users go through same external IP, will this be a problem, or user relates to Yammer user?

Thanks

Answer 1

It is per user token and not by IP Address. So, multiple users from the same IP can make API requests to Yammer and the rate limiting will apply per user. https://developer.yammer.com/v1.0/docs/rest-api-rate-limits
