Fireflies Request Budget and Backoff

Overview

Enforce current Fireflies plan and operation-specific request limits with bounded concurrency, retryAfter handling, and cost-aware pagination.

Prerequisites

• The target repository or integration path and the requested operator outcome.
• The Fireflies principal, team, environment, and data classification for the work.
• Current Fireflies documentation, credentials only when needed, and an accountable approver.

Current Contract

General documented limits are 50 requests/day for Free and Pro and 60 requests/minute for Business and Enterprise. addToLiveMeeting is 3 requests per 20 minutes, shareMeeting is 10/hour, and deleteTranscript is 10/minute. Treat docs and retryAfter as authoritative over hard-coded assumptions.

Authentication

For authenticated operations, inject FIREFLIES_API_KEY from an approved secret manager and send it only as Authorization: Bearer REDACTED_KEY to https://api.fireflies.ai/graphql. Never print, commit, place in a URL, forward to a browser, or include the key in evidence. Webhook signing secrets are separate credentials and must not be reused as API keys.
