Hello,
I am downloading data from twitter. Since twitter has a rate limit of 450 record per 15 min, I wanted to use a throttle tool.
However I am still getting a rate limit error. Is this a correct way to use the throttle tool?
Thank you,
Kazumi
Hi @knozawa,
The throttle tool will reduce the number of records passing through it over a given time. It looks like you are only making one call to the twitter API, and so the throttle tool will not do anything there.
Say if you were making 1000 calls to the API, then you would put the throttle tool before the download tool and it would only allow x calls per minute to go to the download tool.
Thank you, Kane!
Hi Kane,
I created a workflow with multiple calls. When I added a throttle tool before downloading tool, I still reached a rate limit. I believe a throttle tool can delay passing through it at least 1 record per 1 min. Is there any way to delay it 1 record per 15 min?
Sincerely,
