What are the best practices for using the Travis CI API?

When using the Travis CI API, it's important to authenticate properly, use pagination for large data sets, and cache responses to minimize API calls.

Can you explain how to authenticate with the Travis CI API?

To authenticate, you need to use a personal access token. You can generate this token in your Travis CI account settings and include it in the Authorization header of your requests.

What should I do if I hit the API rate limit?

If you hit the rate limit, you should implement exponential backoff in your requests and consider caching responses to reduce the number of calls.

Are there any specific endpoints I should focus on?

Yes, focus on the endpoints for builds, repositories, and jobs, as they provide the most relevant information for CI/CD workflows.
