Throttling prevention (client side)

This feature is available in KONNEKT 2.11 or later

In addition to the policy "SharePoint throttling prevention", a KONNEKT client can be actively throttled. This setting applies to folders and files.

Soft Limit

When the soft limit is reached, the client will limit GraphAPI requests by initiating throttling:

• Most operations will be throttled for 2 seconds.

• Throttling prevention level will switch to HIGH

Some operations will be postponed until the request amount falls below the soft limit.

Hard Limit

When the hard limit is reached, the client will stop to send any GraphAPI requests. The KONNEKT app will display an error until the end of the time window is reached.

How to Use It

Administrators can configure this policy by enabling it and set the following parameters:

Name	Default Value	Description
ClientThrottlingTimeWindow	300	Duration, in seconds, over which throttling and resource units are measured. (0 disables client side throttling)
ClientThrottlingSoftLimit	250	Number of resource units that trigger the client side soft limit. (0 disables soft limit)
ClientThrottlingHardLimit	0	Number of resource units that trigger the hard limit. (0 disables hard limit)

• Value stored in:

  • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\GlueckKanja\Konnekt or

  • HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\GlueckKanja\Konnekt

1. Key with value per setting - e.g. ClientThrottlingTimeWindow

• Value name: ClientThrottlingTimeWindow

• Value type: REG_DWORD

• Value data: 300 (duration in seconds)

• Key stored in:

  • HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\GlueckKanja\Konnekt or
