## Data updates

This integration retrieves data from the PlayStation Network every 30 seconds to ensure timely updates.

Friend status updates occur every 180 seconds. If more than 20 friends are configured, the update interval will be gradually increased to avoid exceeding API rate limits.

## Known limitations

PlayStation Network imposes a rate limit of 300 requests per 15 minutes.
