bulk request

[divadpoc]

Hy,

I'm currently indexing my data w/ fields i get from your service. As it's lots of data there are a lot of requests, and this might influence your server, I assume. Is there a way to combine a number of requests into one request, or should I just put a delay for each new request on my side? what happens if I just keep requesting, will the service just stop returning me results?

an example w/ the amount of data: i have around 2000 tweets, and i'd request a new result one after another, that would be alot even within a second. I just tested w/ just around 200 tweets, and i'd just assume that you would have noticed it? the good thing, once it is done, it's done :)

thanks, and also thanks for offering this API!

cheers

That shouldn't be a problem, as a free user you are automatically
throttled at 1 request/second, so there's no worry of hurting the
systems behind our API.

Also, if you disable recommendations of images, you will get your
results back much faster.

thanks for your answer.

I read sthg about the rate-limit after i posted this, so I just adapted my code to wait for at least one second. but it's nice to hear that i can't hurt you if I wouldn't have done that.

Also, if you disable recommendations of images, you will get your
results back much faster.

 

and thanks for the hint not to request any image recommendations, it's good to know if i plan on doing so some time.
