      As I can create multple api keys for a single user id. In this case how the rate limit applies ?

      If I create 3 api keys, will the requests from all api keys are considered as same and apply the given rate limit?

      Or the rate limits all these api keys are considered separately?

          Many APIs use API keys for authentication and authorization. Rate limiting can be implemented based on the API key, restricting the number of requests that can be made using that particular key.

              Usually, the API key determines the API request rate limit. The rate limitations are applied according to the individual API key that is supplied to each user or application utilizing the API.
