Response
Perps account API tier limits retrieved successfully
User's API usage tier.
Token-bucket budget for one rate-limit bucket. Each request deducts tokens equal to its endpoint cost; the bucket refills at refill_rate tokens per second up to bucket_capacity. A request is allowed if the bucket holds enough tokens to cover its cost; otherwise the request is rejected with HTTP 429.
