Common Q&A

Does Ragic API support fetching metadata of a sheet?

Unfortunately, this feature is currently not supported. However, we do have plans supporting this feature. We also welcome suggestions and ideas, please contact us at support@ragic.com.

Can Ragic API return all data entries in a sheet at once?

Currently, the only way to achieve this is by setting the correct limit parameter.

For more details, please refer to this documentation.

Note that reading a large number of entries in a single request can significantly slow down the response rate of Ragic API.

Why does Ragic only return 1000 entries?

GET API by default only returns 1000 entries. If you wish to modify this behavior, please use the limit and offset parameters.

For more details, please refer to this documentation.

Note that reading a large number of entries in a single request can significantly slow down the response rate of Ragic API.

Does Ragic API support creating/updating multiple data entries in one request?

This feature is currently not supported. However, we do have plans supporting bulk APIs. We also welcome bulk API suggestions and ideas, please contact us at support@ragic.com.

Does Ragic API impose a usage limit?

We do not impose any limit on reasonable use. We will only send notification and apply throttling if we detect unfair usage from a specific IP or user.

For more details, please refer to this documentation.

Why does it sometimes take a while to receive a HTTP response?

There is a queue mechanism implemented for Ragic API, and each database account has an independent queue. All requests will be delayed until the ones in front have completed. In the event of serious delays, the queued requests will eventually timeout. It is recommended to send one request at a time, and to only send a new request, after the current request has received a response.
