How do I set up batch processing to limit task usage?

I’ll give you an example: I have 1000 contacts I need imported from Salesforce into Google Sheets. I want to batch process these contacts in sets of 200. I believe that this would greatly decrease my task usage.

I can’t find a direct explanation of how to set this up, though. I’ve read about paginator but I’m not familiar with API calls and Zapier to understand how it works without more guidance.

Hi @jackiealldredge 

Most Zap app triggers/actions work on a per record basis.

A limited number of Zap app triggers/actions support line items.

The Salesforce API would likely have to be used to get multiple records from Salesforce.

Pagination for many apps is 100 max per page.
