I see that API v2 limits the number of blocks to 50 per 15 minutes, how many is the limit in API v1.1?
Also, apart from rate limiting, is there such a thing as too much blocking that can get an account locked?

I think the v1.1 API doesn’t have a published limit, so it’s assumed to be 15 calls in 15 minutes, but in reality it’s “adaptive” or “bursty” so you can sometimes make a few more: Rate limits: Standard v1.1 | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform

Note that endpoints not listed in the chart default to 15 requests per allotted user. All request windows are 15 minutes in length.

It’s also worth knowing that the POST / write operations like this also have account limits, so if an account is observed to take a large number of actions in a short period of time it might be unusual.

In general we would strongly recommend that you use v2 for new builds, unless an endpoint does not exist or there’s a compelling reason not to do so. Thanks!

I see, thank you very much.

Thanks. I see, I just can’t create any more v2 apps because I have already published one “product” app using api v2.
