/datasets/profile/{datasetId}/batch/{batchId}

Download a list of profile variables and records of members with profile variables.

Prerequisite

Steps

Retrieve member data from your download link by following these steps:

  1. Make a GET call to obtain the download link:

    https://api.{region}.alida.com/v2/applications/{communityApiKeyName}/datasets/profile/{datasetId}/batch/{batchId}

  2. Make a GET call to retrieve member data from the download link in the data field:

    https://api.{region}.alida.com/v2/applications/{communityApiKeyName}/datasets/profile/{datasetId}/files/{fileId}

  3. In the Locations header, use the link to download the export file. Skip this step if the download link is automatically redirected to download the export file.
    Note: Streaming is a recommended method to extract large quantities of data without affecting memory or performance. Use any HTTP client capable of streaming and is compatible with the language you are using.
