### Description

The **Import Exact Online** node allows you to retrieve data from Exact Online into your data flow.\
It supports both single (regular) and bulk retrieval modes.

**Retrieval Modes:**

#### Regular (Single) Mode

Uses the standard Exact Online API to retrieve data.

**Characteristics:**

* Retrieves data per request (paginated)
* Suitable for smaller datasets or incremental loads
* Supports filtering

> Note: Only **GET** operations are used within this node.

#### Bulk Mode

Uses the bulk API of Exact Online for high-volume data retrieval.

**Characteristics:**

* Retrieves up to **1000 records per API call**
* Ideal for initial loads or large datasets
* Requires selecting one or more fields using `$select`

**Important:**

* Bulk mode **requires** the *Select fields* configuration
* Not all endpoints may support bulk retrieval

***

\*\* Custom Fields: \*\*

When the **Include custom fields** option is enabled:

* Custom fields are retrieved per record
* The selected endpoint must support custom fields
* Your Exact Online environment must support this feature

### Configuration Options

| Setting        | Required | Description                                                                                                 |
| -------------- | -------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Division       | No       | Specifies the division from which data is retrieved. If not provided, the default division is used.         |
| Retrieval Mode | Yes      | Determines how data is retrieved: **Single** or **Bulk**.                                                   |
| Custom Fields  | No       | When enabled, retrieves custom fields per record (if supported by the entity and Exact Online environment). |

***

### Rate Limiting

The node automatically respects the rate limits imposed by Exact Online.

* Maximum: **60 API calls per minute**
* Throttling is handled internally, so no additional configuration is required

***

### Tips & Best Practices

* Use **Bulk mode** for initial full synchronizations or large datasets
* Use **SIngle mode** for incremental updates or smaller queries
* Always limit your dataset using filters where possible to improve performance
* Only select the fields you need, especially in Bulk mode, to reduce load and improve speed
* Not all endpoints support both retrieval modes
* Custom fields availability depends on both the entity and Exact configuration
* Division selection is optional but recommended when working with multiple divisions
