parallel download RIC

Can I download RIC in parallel in different threads from one account? There is a possibility?

For example, RIC: is it possible for ESH1 to download 30 threads in parallel, so that each thread downloads for 1 day?

Hello @s61670,

Please refer to Best Practices & Fair Usage Policy for DataScope Select and Tick History for the complete details on how many of each request type are accepted in parallel, as well as other limits and best practices when working with RTH REST.

Specifically, "you can submit a maximum of 50 concurrent requests per report template for all report types, except... ", i.e. 50.

However, "...the number of concurrent extractions that can be processed on a per-report and per-user basis is two for all report templates except ...".

Consequently, this is something to be aware of, in this use case, two of the requests will be accepted for the immediate processing, while the rest will be queued, till one of the processing requests is completed.

With this information, it becomes your decision as app designer, how you prefer to submit your request(s). Usually, a single request for 30 days worth of content, is more efficient, then 30 separate 1-day request submissions, and if you require multiple requests, then if to submit them by 2s, or to submit all 30, and to have 28 requests queued.
