Idempotency
機械支援の翻訳下書き (Japanese) for "Idempotency": The property of an operation where performing it multiple times produces the same result as performing it once. Idempotent API endpoints are critical for safe retries — if a network error occurs, the client can re-send the request without fear of duplicating side effects like charges or database records.
“例文の下書き: Pass an idempotency key with payment requests so retries don't charge the customer twice.”
Rate Limiting
機械支援の翻訳下書き (Japanese) for "Rate Limiting": A technique for controlling the frequency of requests a client can make to an API or service within a given time window. Rate limiting protects systems from abuse, prevents overload, and ensures fair resource allocation among consumers. Responses typically include headers indicating current usage and remaining quota.
“例文の下書き: The API returned a 429 Too Many Requests error once rate limiting kicked in at 100 calls per minute.”
Webhook
機械支援の翻訳下書き (Japanese) for "Webhook": A user-defined HTTP callback that fires automatically when a specific event occurs in a source system. Rather than polling an API repeatedly, webhooks push data to a listener URL the moment something happens — making integrations real-time and efficient.
“例文の下書き: We set up a webhook so Slack gets notified instantly every time a new definition is published.”
