    These parameters are shown in the EDR settings. You can customize the API request by adding new parameters or modifying the existing parameters

    EDR settings.

  3. Select  Enable multi-threading to download EDR events to pull the EDR Events data in case of multithreading. By default, this checkbox is disabled. - Enter the Number of threads to pull the EDR data. You can select the number from 2 to 10.

  4. Enter Page Size to specify the number of records fetched in a single API call. Default: 1000 records, Maximum: 10000.

  5. Enter EDR Maximum API retry count to define the number of times TA can retry the API call after any error occurs.

Ensure that the 'Enable debug logs' and 'Enable to preserve the XML/JSON files of API output' options under 'More Settings' are enabled to preserve the JSON File for EDR Events in case of multithreading. If 'Enable debug logs' are disabled under More Settings, the response should be parsed on the fly.
