        **Important Notes:**

        * **Plan limits:** Available exclusively for **Premium** plans and higher.

        * **History limit:** The update history is strictly limited to the last **7 days**.

        * **Quota:** Calling this endpoint does not count towards your daily API limits.

        * **Pagination:** The response does not include a total field. To fetch all updates, continue requesting subsequent pages (incrementing the page parameter) until the data array in the response is empty.'
