Bulk operations About
About
Bulk operations allow you to regroup multiple items to limit the number of requests. This is especially useful when you have performance issues due to the fact that there are too many requests being made against your API.
Let's suppose that you have employees (/employees) and you need to reassign many of them to a new location (e.g., location property of an employee).
When you do so, you can either:
- perform n requests: one POST request per employee with the new location value (e.g., POST /employees/123 ... /456... /789...)
- perform a single POST request against a specific collection resource (e.g., POST /employeesBulk) with all the updates to perform
