# Management API

> Use the Management API to programmatically do most of what the Campaign Manager's UI allows. It's the API for management purposes and back-office operations.

> For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](https://docs.talon.one/llms.txt).

Typical back-office operations include the following tasks:

- Getting data from the Campaign Manager (for example, referral data or customer data).
- Managing custom attributes.
- Importing loyalty cards.

:::important
- Unless otherwise stated, all our SLAs in contract are specified for the Integration API only. The Management API
  is primarily designed to be used by the Campaign Manager.
- This API is for back-office operations, **not for real-time integrations** that directly
  serve your end users. Each of its endpoints has a limit of three requests per second.
  The **high-load API** to send and retrieve data to and from Talon.One in **real-time**
  is [the Integration API][integ-over].
