Please consider on below:
Yes the Azure DevOps API has a global rate limit of 200 requests per 5 minutes, and it will return a 429 response code when this limit is exceeded. The headers that communicate these limits, such as X-RateLimit-Remaining and X-RateLimit-Limit, should be included in the responses to help you manage your request rate.
If you’re not seeing these headers during testing, it might be due to the default configuration of Azure API Management, which doesn’t expose rate limit information on response headers by default. To enable these headers, you need to extend the rate-limit policy with the remaining-calls-header-name and total-calls-header-name properties.
