What’s the difference between connecting to an API endpoint directly vs bulk loading?

Thanks for this, @alex_morgan!

A direct API connection—using one-off functions via a lambda connector—is best for small payloads.

Bulk loading helps with heavy use, better filtering, and avoiding API rate limits.

The first option offers you a bit more flexibility, but the latter allows you to “set it and forget it” based on whatever ETL pattern(s) you want to follow.
