Does anyone have any experience of batching many individual REST requests within a single odata $batch REST POST avoiding the set up costs associated with making a large number of individual requests.
I can do so within Snaplogic by grouping and then transforming multiple REST requests into a large string containing the batched requests to be sent within a single REST POST, but wanted to check I havenโt missed something obvious with either the REST POST or HTTP Client Snaps that can be used to do so automatically.
Example REST POST, containing a batch of two GET requests - my use case is several thousand POST, PATCH or DELETEs.
POST https://fabrikam.sharepoint.com/_api/$batch HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Bearer <access token omitted>
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=batch_e3b6819b-13c3-43bb-85b2-24b14122fed1
Host: fabrikam.sharepoint.com

Any thoughts or similar problems solved within the community?
Thanks,
Matt.
