+# Since this can easily take an hour or two per year of logs to download, you may want to add progress dots like so:
+#
+#   ./cloudera_navigator_audit.sh service==impala -k | ./progress_dots.sh > navigator_audit_log_impala.csv
+#
+#
+# or if you want full curl interactive progress on stderr:
+#
+#   PROGRESS=1  ./cloudera_navigator_audit.sh service==impala -k > navigator_audit_log_impala.csv

 # XXX: looks like there is a bug in the Navigator API returning only admin for when start date set to 1970-01-01T00:00:00 - workaround is to use 1970-01-01T00:00:01
