Credit Deduction

Credits are deducted before processing
Failed requests may still consume credits
Single job details: 1 credit
Job search: 4+ credits (dynamic based on results)
Freelancer profile: 3 credits
Search freelancers: 3 credits

Rate Limiting

Implement delays between requests for better success rates
High-frequency requests may trigger Upwork's anti-bot measures

Data Accuracy

Job data reflects real-time Upwork information
Private jobs return limited information
Some fields may be null or empty for certain job types
Client statistics are cumulative across their Upwork history
