# Release notes: October 2025

We're excited to announce that you can now sign in to [data.gov.sg](http://data.gov.sg/) using our new login modal to access developer and production API keys.

What's New

Starting today, registered users can obtain dedicated API keys that provide several enhanced benefits:

* Higher rate limits for your API requests
* Priority support when you need assistance
* Maintenance notifications to keep you informed of any planned updates or changes

Why This Matters

From 1 November 2025 onwards, we will be implementing [rate limits](https://guide.data.gov.sg/developer-guide/api-overview/api-rate-limits) across our platform. By signing up now and obtaining your API keys, you'll ensure uninterrupted access to integrations with datasets on the platforms.
