The frequency of requests to the api

Sort:

Hello,
I have a list of dozens of users on my site. Currently, once a day I make appropriate requests to the api to update information about the games they have played.
However, I would like to do it more often, e.g. every hour.
Wouldn't such a frequency be considered too frequent? Can I calmly execute my queries at such intervals?
Thank you in advance for your response happy.png

There's not really a lot of guidance on that. Though once an hour is probably too often as most

From the documentation: Cache invalidation: This endpoints refresh at most once every 12 hours
