Managing API requests effectively is crucial for maintaining optimal Salesforce performance and ensuring seamless business operations. This guide explores proven approaches to monitoring and optimizing API usage within your Salesforce organization.
Salesforce implements API limits based on organization edition and user licenses. These limits reset on a 24-hour rolling basis, with Enterprise Edition organizations typically starting with 100,000 API calls per day. Additional calls are allocated based on the number of user licenses, with each Salesforce license adding approximately 1,000-5,000 calls to the daily limit (varies by license type). Understanding these limits is essential for proper integration architecture and planning.
Salesforce offers robust native tools for tracking API consumption:
Successful API request management in Salesforce requires a strategic combination of monitoring, optimization, and governance. By implementing these guidelines, organizations can maintain robust integrations while maximizing their API resources. Continuous review and refinement of these strategies ensure sustainable performance as your Salesforce ecosystem evolves.

From my initial call with Spencer through project implementation with John and Evan, my experience with the SOLVD team was excellent. They were quick to understand our business needs, clear when explaining the reasoning behind proposed solutions, transparent when reporting on progress and timeline, and all around enjoyable to work with. Would highly recommend and looking forward to continue working with them in the future!
SOLVD was very straight forward with everything needed to complete the project. No surprises, no issues, and cost was aligned with the estimate. They made implementation easy and quick.
As a rule, I'm pretty stingy with my recommendations. So it's a pleasure for me to recommend Solvd as a top-flight Salesforce consultancy. Solvd recently led our company's conversion to the Lightning interface and did it on time, on budget and made it easy for me and my team. I know I'll use their services again, and am confident they can do the same for you.
