Webbula has the ability to append both single records (Express Mode) and bulk lists ( Bulk Mode) in real time. Bulk mode is available via our API and FTP.
The choice between using our API or FTP for data appends largely depends on your specific needs and technical capabilities. Here’s a breakdown to help you decide:
API (Application Programmable Interface):
- Best For: Real-time or near real-time data appending, integration into web forms, or existing web applications.
- Use Case: If you need to append data for single submissions, like when someone fills out a form on your website and you want to immediately append additional information, our API is the ideal choice.
- Technical Integration: Requires deeper technical integration. It’s perfect if your team has the capability to integrate our API into your systems or applications.
- Flexibility: Offers massive customization options, such as different match type policies (Individual, Household, or Both), email hygiene verification, and more.
FTP (File Transfer Protocol):
- Best For: Scheduled, batch, or bulk data appends.
- Use Case: If you have large files containing multiple records and want to run append jobs periodically (e.g., weekly or monthly), using FTP is more suitable.
- Ease of Use: Easier setup for non-technical users. You simply upload your files to our secure FTP server, and we handle the rest.
- File Handling: Ideal for handling large volumes of data in a single go, ensuring efficient processing and management of big datasets.
