GroupMessagesByInterval
Set this parameter to group multiple messages (from the same channel) into a single IDOL document. For example, if you set GroupMessagesByInterval=5 minutes, the connector groups messages that occur within a five-minute interval.
The next interval begins at the time of the first message that falls outside the preceding interval. For example, notice the one minute gap between the following five-minute intervals:
10:30 - Message1 [Interval 1 starts at 10:30]
10:32 - Message2 [In interval 1]
10:34 - Message3 [In interval 1]
[Interval 1 ends at 10:35]
10:36 - Message4 [Interval 2 starts at 10:36]
10:38 - Message5 [In interval 2]
10:40 - Message6 [In interval 2]
If you set this parameter and also set GroupMessagesByCount, the connector starts a new document as soon as one of the criteria (time interval or number of messages) is reached.
