Download Tool Configuration

[AKPWZ]

Hi,

Can someone please explain me how to use or set up connection configuration in the Download Tool?

What does it means and how to use it:
1. Max connection

2. Timeout (seconds)

3. Throttle records

4. Record per minute

Thank you!

Hi @AKPWZ ,

In short:

Maximum connections - Specifies the number of requests the tool sends simultaneously. If you have multiple rows going into the download tool, it will send one request per row. It can send some of these requests simultaneously. Increasing this number will speed up the tool, but can overload the server or sometimes flag you as a bot.

Timeout - the amount of seconds the tool waits for a response from the server before it errors.

Throttle - Choose whether to limit the number of requests the tool sends in a certain timeframe. 

Records per minute - Choose the throttle rate.
