Common questions
Can I download more than 100 applications at a time maximum?
List views display a maximum of 100 applications at a time. This display imposes a maximum of 100 applications that can be selected for download. The download process is very resource-intensive, adding a lot of load to servers, and so the action of performing a bulk download will be limited to 100 at a time to ensure everyone continues to have a fantastic, fast system.
Why won't the system allow me to start another download?
When a user requests a bulk download, the system will prevent another request from being submitted until the first has completed. As stated above, the download process is very resource-intensive. Initiating numerous bulk downloads at a time previously led to delays in receiving.
Can I download the same zip file whenever I want?
The link you receive in the email allows you to download the zip file for 24 hours until it expires.
How long is the bulk-download process?
It will vary depending on the size of applications, the number of attachments, and size of attachments.

To increase efficiency of your downloads, all attachment files over 100MB in size will be included as a link within a text file.
