API Call Samples

We reserve the right to log and verify your API calls and to contact you if we detect abuse on your part. For example:
  • the requests takes too long to return
  • the requests return too much data at a time
  • The requests are too frequent
We strongly suggest using the date filter parameters to return only the data that is relevant.
While TaskId and ProjectId are not required, at least one of them must be provided.
