Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What properties can I update on a company watchlist? You can update the watchlist name and the disable status (to pause or resume tracking). To modify the companies being tracked, you would need to create a new watchlist with the updated list of companies.
Q: Does updating a watchlist reset existing collected data? No. Updating a watchlist’s name or disable status does not affect any posts or data that have already been collected. Your existing data remains intact. Disabling a watchlist pauses future tracking, but all previously collected posts are still accessible via the Posts API.
