Rate limits of connected apps (REST API)
Hi,
I'm developing a connected app, but I'm struggling to understand the rate limits of the API.
This connected app is the interface between my app and the salesforce instance of my customers. I mean, I'm developing an integration with Salesforce, so my users can add contacts, opportunities, and accounts to Salesforce.
I don't understand if the rate limits are per connected app, per users' license, or both. I'm trying to figure out that through this page (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.228.0.api.meta/api/implementation_considerations.htm?SearchType=Stem).
As far as I can understand, this is dependent on the users' license.
Let's say I have 10 users and 5 of them have the Unlimited Edition license. The other 5 have the Enterprise Edition. This means the first 5 will be able to execute 5000 requests each and the remaining 5 will be able to successfully execute 1000 requests each per day.
Am I understating it correctly?
Thanks in advance,

Thank you for your help.
I have already checked those documents, but I'm not 100% sure if I'm understanding it correctly. The documentation confirms the limits are per user, but it doesn't refer to anything related to connected apps.
Can I have hundreds of users executing 1000 requests per day or is it limited to 100000 requests in total?
Thank you,
Hope this helps...
Thanks,
