[API-users] Requesting Occurrence Data for Large List of Species

Hello,

If I have a list of around 3,000 species, and I would like to request occurrence data for each species, is it more efficient to use the Search or Download API?

If using the Download API, could I include the list of species in an external query file and use the "in" predicate? For example:

{ "creator":"userName", "notification_address": ["userName@example.org"], "predicate": { "type":"in", "key":"SCIENTIFIC_NAME", "values":["cat1","cat2","cat3"] } }

Thanks,

Ben
