External Assistants
Request limits
Access allows 120 requests per minute for your staff account, 60 per connection, and 300
authorized read-tool calls per school shared across connections. Authenticated requests that
reach the limiter count even if they later fail; failed sign-in or authorization attempts do
not use this request quota. If your
assistant reaches a limit, it must wait for the retry interval instead of repeatedly trying
again. Brief service-busy errors can also occur when too many requests run at once.
If a data request times out, ask for a smaller date range or more specific filters before
retrying. Requesting fewer displayed rows alone may not reduce the work needed to calculate
a total. A help-search service error is separate from school-data access; retry help search
later rather than assuming a guide or feature does not exist.
Newly eligible schools can appear when broad access is selected. For an existing comparison,
ask the assistant to keep the exact schools you selected rather than adding new ones silently.
