API LIFECYCLE

Predictable versions. Visible changes.

Versioning

Stable public endpoints carry a major version in their path, such as /v1, /v2, or /v3. Backward-incompatible response or behavior changes require a new major version.

Deprecation

Lex Engine targets at least 180 days of notice before removing a stable paid endpoint. Security, legal, source-access, or emergency reliability issues may require faster action; those exceptions will be published on the status page.

Compatibility

Fields may be added without a major-version change. Clients should ignore unknown fields. Existing documented fields will not silently change meaning within a stable major version.

Limits and availability

Rate limits and monthly credits depend on plan. A successful response does not imply a legal record is complete; provenance, confidence, and official-source links remain part of the data contract.

Current versions

v1: public records and operational feeds. v2: intelligence search and signals. v3: accounts, billing, watchlists, customer workspaces, and company profiles.
