Can any API programmers answer a question about the Feedly API? I would like to know what these mean exactly in the Feedly API: Score, Coverage, CoverageScore and EstimatedEngagement.

These are leftovers from experiments we ran in our feed search engine.
- "coverage" and "coverageScore" are roughly based on the ratio of entries read vs. entries published (higher score = readers are more likely to read entries published by this source).
- "estimatedEngagement" is an average value for the engagement of entries published by this source (see the entries API for details).
- "score" is a compound value of these and other values; it was used to showcase the best sources in the search results.
I hope this helps.

Thankyou. What is the "value for engagement"? And I'm wondering about 1 more: what does "LastUpdated" mean? – stackrun Jan 26 '19 at 07:50

"engagement" is a measure of reader engagement (sharing, save to board). "lastUpdated" is the timestamp of the newest entry from this source. – David Chatenay Jan 28 '19 at 17:44

Thank you. Also, we have an issue with speed. The feed from Feedly is extraordinarily slow. Is there a way to speed it up? – stackrun Jan 31 '19 at 15:59

Can you provide the feedId? Also, what is slow? Is the server slow to respond, or is the feed not refreshed often enough? – David Chatenay Feb 01 '19 at 18:25
