See per-plan limits and best practices →

The Horoscope API uses standard HTTP status codes — 200 on success, 400 for invalid parameters, 401 for missing or invalid keys, 403 for insufficient credits, 429 for rate-limit exhaustion, and 500/503 for server-side issues. Each error response includes an X-Request-ID header you can quote when contacting support. See full error handling guide →

How many credits does Horoscope cost?

What happens if I exceed my Horoscope credit limit?
