Hi @nisarghande 

 

Just want to confirm when you say API you are using the download tool right.

Hi @nisarghande 

 

Here is how you can do it.

 

Workflow:

Each row can be converted to API url with parameters. This way each row is an URL endpoint for a chunk of data that will be fetched.

 

Hope this helps : )
