simulating parallel endpoint api usage via jmeter

I have rest endpoint under test. In real world scenario, this API will be called in parallel by 100-200 users/minute.

I would like to simulate such scenario via jmeter as load testing. I've created simple thread group with thread count 100, but I am not quit sure whether it's doing what I am looking for.

Does the thread count represents the actual parallel consumers? How can I simulate such parallel access to endpoint API?

Any advice appreciated

One thread means one Vuser or Number of Threads means Number of users to simulate.

From jmeter documentation:-

Each thread will execute the test plan in its entirety and completely independently of other test threads. Multiple threads are used to simulate concurrent connections to your server application.

So, multiple thread will run the plan in parallel with some delay specify in ramp up field of thread group.

Hope this helps.
