- For business migrations, consider transferring team folders in batches to avoid API rate limits.
- Use file filters to skip temporary or unwanted files (e.g., cache folders, thumbnails).
- Enable multi-threading to increase throughput when supported by source and destination APIs.
- RiceDrive will automatically retry transient errors, but monitor the final logs for skipped or blocked files.
- Remember that some providers (Dropbox Business API or MEGA) may have daily or per-account limits β plan large migrations accordingly.
