Send the data to your 1010data FTP directory

With FTP access, you can save data files to your 1010data FTP directory for downloading.

Your 1010data FTP directory allows you to download large data files.

For large data files, it may take the 1010data Insights Platform some time to create the file. Normally, once the file is created, the platform will notify you. However, if your browser loses the connection before your receive the notification (e.g., in the event of a proxy-server or firewall timeout), the Insights Platform will continue to create the file.
Note: Logging into the user interface to start a new session will end your previous session and stop the file creation.
