Ensure contact limit isn't exceeded

JDevore — Mon, 22 May 2023 16:12:21 GMT

I am developing an integration to HubSpot that bulk uploads contacts. This will run on a cron every hour. I was asked to ensure that this will never exceed the tier limit of 1 million total contacts. I thought this would be easy, but I can't find any endpoint that has information about that limit. There are endpoints to check daily / hourly limits, but no overall limits.

Is there an endpoint that I can get the total number of contacts that have been uploaded so far?

Hi @JDevore,

You can make a call to the search endpoint '/crm/v3/objects/contacts/search', with the following POST body:

{ "filterGroups": [ { "filters": [ { "propertyName": "hs_object_id", "operator": "HAS_PROPERTY" } ] } ], "limit": 0 }

It will return the following:

{ "total": 745, "results": [], "paging": { "next": { "after": "0" } } }

Since all contacts must have an object id, the total will be the total number of contacts in the account.

Best,
