# Parallelization

> Learn how to parallelize your extractions in RWS Integration

## Overview

At RWS Integration it's possible to parallelize extractions to increase the range of data that can be extracted in a single integration. Parallelization allows you to extract data from multiple divided segments simultaneously by configuring a list of parameter values that will be used to make parallel API calls.

## When to use

Use parallelization when:

* The API to be extracted has data divided into multiple "channels" or segments based on a parameter
* You need to extract data from multiple specific values of a parameter (e.g., multiple store IDs, account IDs, region codes)
* The API returns different datasets based on parameter values

## How it works

RWS Integration will parallelize the extractions by the number of parameter values configured in the 'Extract' parallelization section. Each value in your configured list will trigger a separate, parallel extraction request to the API.

## Example

Consider an API that returns order data from multiple stores. The API requires a `storeId` parameter that filters orders by store.

**Scenario:** You need to extract orders from 3 stores with IDs: `abc123`, `def456`, and `ghi789`.

**Configuration:** In the parallelization section, configure:

* **Parameter:** `storeId`
* **Parameter list:** `abc123,def456,ghi789` (separated by commas without spaces)

**Result:** RWS Integration will trigger 3 separate, parallel extraction requests, one for each store ID in your list. This allows you to extract data from all three stores simultaneously in a single integration run.

### Benefits

* **Simplicity**: Allow you to configure a list of parameter values to be extracted in a single integration
* **Scalability**: Easily add or remove parameter values without creating new integrations
