This article provides basic information on daily API limits. For more information, contact your Salesforce administrator. Additionally, refer to the following external Salesforce documentation:
Reaching the Daily API Limit
When you have reached your Salesforce API daily limit, you will receive a notification within your Salesforce Settings page in Lead Gen & CRM.
You will not be able to view your contact or lead mapping pages when this occurs. An API call is needed to view your current field mappings.
The sync should resume 24 hours after reaching your limit.

Reducing API Call Usage
Consider the following when trying to reduce API calls:
- Resolve errors found in the Salesforce Error Log tab.
- Unused fields should be set to Unassigned/Do not include.
- Use the Always use CRM value when mapping to the Lead Gen & CRM standard Phone Number field.
- Reduce the amount of custom fields you are syncing.
- Check with your Salesforce administrator to see if other integrations are using API Calls.
