I’m building a intergation via the APIs and I want to check our usage. If I call the endpoint [https://api.hubapi.com/integrations/v1/limit/daily](https://api.hubapi.com/integrations/v1/limit/daily) I can see very minimal usage, but I can see far more calls via the [Developers | HubSpot](https://app.hubspot.com/developer/.../application/.../monitoring/api) page.

Does anyone know why these would be different? I don’t understand why the integration calls which are showing up on that page are not counted towards the daily limit? But it’s a great thing if they’re not!

Welcome, [@\_mark](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/85159).

Happy to clarify. Per the [Check daily API usage](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/methods/check-daily-api-usage) endpoint’s documentation:

**This endpoint tracks daily API usage for integrations using a HubSpot API key (hapikey), and therefore requires a hapikey for authentication.**

Requests authenticated with an OAuth token are held to a separate 40,000 call/day limit and can be tracked in your app’s _Monitoring_ tool.

Ok thanks for getting back to me. So just to confirm, do api calls made via an OAuth token count towards the 40,000 limit? If not is there a limit on requests authenticated via OAuth token?

Hey, [@\_mark](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/85159).

Not quite. **Requests authenticated with an OAuth token contribute to a _separate_ 40,000 call per day limit.** This is technically a soft limit, but we monitor the call use of OAuth integrations closely to ensure performance for all of our customers.
