Best Practices to Asynchronously Send Information to Two APIs Without Blocking?

18 Replies, 893 Views

Hey everyone,

So, I’ve been trying to figure out the best way to asynchronously send information to two APIs without blocking the main thread. Like, I don’t want my app to freeze up just because one API is taking forever to respond, ya know?

I’ve been playing around with async/await in Python and JS, but I’m not sure if I’m doing it *right*. Should I just fire off both requests at the same time and let them run in the background? Or is there a smarter way to handle retries and errors without making things messy?

Also, what about rate limits? If I asynchronously send information to two APIs, how do I avoid getting throttled or banned?

Would love to hear how y’all handle this. Any tips, tricks, or “gotchas” I should watch out for?

Cheers!
