Hi Tim, I received an error message (via email) when attempting to post 300 taxon keys:
"We are sorry, but an error has occurred processing your download." Please see attached query file. Curl command: curl --include --user username:password --header "Content-Type: application/json" --data @query_1.json http://api.gbif.org/v1/occurrence/download/request I received a HTTP status code "201 Created."
