FAQs + Tips and Tricks

The API for Jobs2Careers can sometimes be slow.

If you are experiencing slowness when pulling in large amounts of data, we recommend pulling in a smaller sample and creating a dataset. This will help you to pull in more data into Grow at a faster rate.

Jobs2Careers places a limit on the range or number of days of data you can pull in.

If you query more than 111 days, you may get an error saying that it is an invalid date range. To avoid this error when you are pulling a report from Jobs2Careers, try to keep your date query to 111 days or fewer as much as possible.
