Talk:Using batching API

From Facebook Developers Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Can this be used to make parallel calls to the same function? (ie. If I wanted to loop through thousands of users to update their profiles with profile_setFBML could it be done using this method?) Also is there a limit to the number of calls in one batch transaction?

Is anyone using the batching API yet?

Whenever we try to use it, it appears to be making calls to our application from Facebook INTERNAL IP addresses (like 10.17.44.161). This is causing our app to throw the error:

Uncaught exception 'FacebookRestClientException' with message 'Unauthorized source IP address (ip was: 10.17.44.161)'

Can you only use the batching API in certain scenarios, or only with IFRAME apps or something? Or is this just a bug in a newly created FB tool?

[edit] Known Issue with IP Addresses

There is a known issue where an error returns an internal Facebook IP address. As a workaround, don't specify any IP addresses in the IP Addresses of Servers Making Requests field in your application settings.
