Limits
SerpWow imposes the following limits on Batches. If you wish to discuss changing a particular limit on your account please contact [email protected]
Resource | Limit |
---|---|
Batches per Account | 10,000 You can have up to 10,000 Batches set up on your account at any one time. To add more you should delete old or unused Batches. |
Searches per Batch | 15,000 when using include_html=false 100 when using include_html=true Note When adding searches with include_html=true to a Batch the maximum number of searches is lower (100) because including the HTML within the response makes the Batch Result Sets much larger. The limit is in place to ensure Result Set files are of a manageable size. If you have need to run a large number of searches all with include_html=true then simply split the searches across multiple 100-search Batches. Note When adding searches with the max_page parameter (for Automatic Pagination) the total requests in a Batch is the combination of max_page X number of searches . For example, for a Batch populated with searches with max_page=10 set the maximum number of searches that could be added to the Batch would be 1,500 (rather than 15,000). |
Searches Added per API Request | 1,000 Add 1,000 searches per API request, up to the maximum of 15,000. |
Searches Added per Bulk CSV Upload | 15,000 |
Automatic Pagination | When adding searches with the max_page parameter set (for automatic pagination) the maximum max_page value is 100 (meaning for each request up to 100 pages will be automatically retrieved). |
Batches Expire After | 2 months Any Batch that has not been started for over 2 months is automatically deleted. Batches can be set to expire sooner on the Profile page of the Dashboard. |
Result Sets Expire After | 14 days Result Sets are available to download for 14 days. |
Concurrently Running Batches | 5 for Batches with up to 250 Searches 1 for Batches with greater than 250 Searches Customized concurrency settings can be arranged on request. If you have a specific thruput requirement required please contact our Support Team to discuss. |
Queued Batches | There is no limit on the number of Batches you can start. They will be queued until a slot to process them is available. |
Execution Speed | SerpWow runs all Searches within a Batch concurrently. As a guide, a Batch containing the maximum 15,000 Searches will take 2-3 minutes to return results. |
