I'm planning to implement threading to speed up large data downloads. Is there/what is the limit to the number of concurrent requests that can be sent from a single session?

    There are no limits on threading, but the general data extraction frequency and volume limits will apply. Breaching these limits would result in throttling down or altogether cutoff of API access.

    You can see an example of how to parallelize your requests using AsyncIO in this notebook. Similar technique can be used for other endpoints as well.
