How do I manage automatic subscription behavior?

[jwidness]

@zygy

add an observation field to about 25,000 observations via the API

I’m going to assume you’re still abiding by the “no machine generated content” rule

@zygy

Is there a way to prevent this automatic subscription behavior

You can’t prevent the subscription, but you can use the API to unsubscribe from each observation as you go (similar to what the third party metadata extension does).
