Limit to simultaneous queries with cl subcommand

[Daniel Mahler]

Hi Andres and team,

When using the cl subcommand there seems to be a limit of ten one-on-one queries that can be done simultaneously. Is that correct? If so, is it feasible to have this limit raised?

Many thanks for your help as always.

Best,
Daniel

Hi Daniel, Could you please send us an example of the limit? It is likely that the limit is in the API. Yet, let us test and confirm. Thanks. Best, ---------------------- R.Andrés Castañeda

Of course, my apologies, Andres.
Here are two examples. Example A works on my end while Example B does not.

Best,
Daniel

Example A:
povcalnet cl, country(ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB) ///
year(2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008) ///
povline(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10) ///
coverage(national national national national national national national national national national) clear

Example B:
povcalnet cl, country(ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB ALB) ///
year(2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008) ///
povline(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11) ///
coverage(national national national national national national national national national national national) clear

@danielmahler @randrescastaneda Just confirming this is not an API limitation. This endpoint (example B) works as expected:
http://iresearch.worldbank.org/povcalnet/povcalnetapi.ashx?C0=ALB_3&PL0=1&Y0=2008&C1=ALB_3&PL1=2&Y1=2008&C2=ALB_3&PL2=3&Y2=2008&C3=ALB_3&PL3=4&Y3=2008&C4=ALB_3&PL4=5&Y4=2008&C5=ALB_3&PL5=6&Y5=2008&C6=ALB_3&PL6=7&Y6=2008&C7=ALB_3&PL7=8&Y7=2008&C8=ALB_3&PL8=9&Y8=2008&C9=ALB_3&PL9=10&Y9=2008&C10=ALB_3&PL10=11&Y10=2008&format=csv
