# Uncapped counts in GraphQL

All count APIs in GraphQL now return uncapped results. To retrieve an uncapped count, set the `limit` argument to `null`.

As part of this update, we've standardized the implementation across all GraphQL APIs. This change introduces a breaking change: all APIs now include a `limit` argument, with a default value of `10000`.
