1. Why is file partitioning enabled in exports?
177
181

-
The file partitioning is a feature that is activated by default to facilitate the management of large files. This functionality divides larger files into smaller segments, thereby enhancing the ease of file transfer, download, ingestion, and overall readability. It is particularly advantageous for customers whose cost files increase in size over time. The specifics of the file partitions are described in a manifest.json file provided with each export run, enabling you to rejoin the original file.
