Page Size
This parameter defines the page size (number of records) during a paginated API request.
Technical Name |
page_size |
Category |
Technical |
Type |
Integer |
Default Value |
1000 |
Example Values |
1000 |
It is recommended to change this value only if there are connection issues or rate limitation. Otherwise changing this parameter should not be necessary. The larger the page size, the longer a request will take. On the other hand, a high page size will decrease the total number necessary requests.
|
Be aware: Most APIs will limit the maximum page size! |
Connection Timeout (in ms)
This parameter defines the time (in milliseconds) after which a running request aborts. If set to null, the default timeout of the system is used.

Type |
Integer null |
Default Value |
null |
Example Values |
null, 10000 |
Initial Delay (in ms)
This parameter defines the initial time (in milliseconds) to wait before a failed request is reattempted.
Technical Name |
initial_delay |
Category |
Technical |
Type |
Integer |
Default Value |
1000 |
Example Values |
1000 |
When a request fails, the connector does a so-called exponential backoff. The delay increases with every failed attempt up to this duration.
Maximum Delay (in ms)
This parameter represents the maximum amount of time (in milliseconds) to wait before a failed HTTP request is reattempted. Set to null for unrestricted delay.
Technical Name |
max_delay |
Category |
Technical |
Type |
Integer null |
Default Value |
3600000 |
Example Values |
3600000 |
Maximum Number of Attempts
This parameter represents the maximum number of attempts after which an HTTP request will fail permanently.
Technical Name |
max_attempts |
Category |
Technical |
Type |
Integer |
Default Value |
5 |
Example Values |
5 |
When a request fails, the connector does a so-called exponential backoff. The delay increases with every failed attempt up to this duration. In order to limit the total runtime of the connector, one can set a maximum delay.
