File Size and Downloading

Question:

Can you log in to download our files? How do we keep our file sizes from getting too large?

Answer:

We are asking for URLs that go directly to the .json (which would commit to download if visited in the browser).  Additionally, if size of the json files are a concern, you can break your json up into multiple pieces and use the index.json to direct our crawlers.

For an example: http://cmsgov.github.io/QHP-provider-formulary-APIs/cms-data-index.json
