Quantcast Audiences Connector Setup Guide

Batch limits

This connector uses batched requests to support high-volume data transfers to the vendor. Parallel processing may result in events reaching the vendor out of sequence. Add a sequence value to events if ordering is important. For more information, see Batched actions. Requests are queued until one of the following thresholds is met or the profile is published:

Max number of requests: 10000
Max time since oldest request: 10 minutes
Max size of requests: 2 MB
