How much data can be retrieved in a single API call?

Question & Answer


Question

How much data can be retrieved in a single API call?

Answer

There are limits on the amount of data which can be returned in an individual call, as follows:

Daily - 93 days
Weekly - 52 weeks
Monthly - 60 months
Quarterly - 20 quarters
Yearly - 5 years

To get around this, you can make multiple calls to the API with different date ranges and then collate these, in order to get a larger data set.
