Performs a batch of identical operations

This method is useful for requesting large amounts of similar data from AQTS, taking advantage of ServiceStack's support for auto-batched requests.

Arguments

endpoint

The base REST endpoint

operationName

The name of operation, from the AQTS Metadata page, to perform multiple times. NOT the route, but the operation name.

operationRoute

The route of the operation

requests

A collection of individual request objects

batchSize

Optional batch size (defaults to 100 requests per batch)

verb

Optional HTTP verb of the operation (defaults to "GET")

Value

A single dataframe containing all the batched responses

When you find that a public API only supports a 1-at-a-time approach, and your code needs to request thousands of items, the sendBatchRequests() method is the one to use.

Examples

if (FALSE) {
# Request info for 3 locations.
# Single-request URL is GET /Publish/v2/GetLocationData?LocationIdentifer=loc1
# Operation name is "LocationDataServiceRequest"
requests = c(list(LocationIdentifier="Loc1"), list(LocationIdentifier="Loc3"), list(LocationIdentifier="Loc3"))
responses = timeseries$sendBatchRequests(timeseries$publishUri,"LocationDataServiceRequest", requests)
}
