::::callout{intent="warning" title="Node.js"}
Segment metrics are currently in private beta and only available to a limited number of users. The response shape might change before GA. [Get in touch](https://resend.com/help) if you’re interested in testing this feature.Once you have access, upgrade your Resend SDK to use the methods on this page:

:::code-group
```shellscript title="Node.js"
npm install resend@6.19.0-preview-headless-dashboard.7
```
:::
::::

Contact counts for your account, optionally broken down by segment. Works across your whole account by default, or scoped to specific segments via `segment_id`.

:::callout{intent="info"}
Responses are cached for up to 15 minutes, so repeating the same request may return slightly stale data within that window.
:::

All parameters are optional. With none, the response covers your whole account, includes every metric, and returns only `totals`. There’s no date range, so counts are a point-in-time snapshot rather than a historical window.

## Query Parameters

:::callout{intent="info"}
When `dimensions` includes `segment`, `data` is ordered by each segment’s creation date, newest first.
:::

## Metrics

Every metric counts contacts, not emails.

| Metric          | Description                                              |
| --------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| `all_contacts`  | Every contact. Sum of `subscribers` and `unsubscribers`. |
| `subscribers`   | Contacts with `unsubscribed` set to `false`.             |
| `unsubscribers` | Contacts with `unsubscribed` set to `true`.              |

:::callout{intent="info"}
`totals` counts each contact once. `data` counts a contact in every segment it belongs to.
