We’ve added some new features to our API to make retrieving large amounts of data easier:

  • You can now list large numbers of Leads and Companies using our Scroll API (in addition to Users as before)
  • The Segments API can now return the number of users in a segment, both when listing all segments or when retrieving a single segment

Updated rate limits

We’ve also made some changes to rate limits in order to avoid volume spikes and improve stability.

Our standard rate limit is still 500 calls per minute, but this is now distributed over 10 second periods with a maximum of 83 requests per 10 seconds.

Read our rate limit guide for more details, or check out this post for advice on handling rate limits.
