}Note: The ezyVet API gives you standard-of-care data that is almost real-time. IDEXX customer support recommends that the maximum number of times that you poll the
v2/standardofcare endpoint is one time each minute. IDEXX also recommends that your that your API queries include the modified_at query parameter. For the query parameter value, use the epoch time of the previous time that you made a query for the endpoint. As a result, the API response has only the data that changed since the previous poll.
