Add multiple products at once via the web service

[gmabber]

Is it possible to add multiple products in one request via web service? I can add products one by one, but it's extremely slow (I've got close to 9000 products in my inventory). If it can be done, can you please describe how? Thanks.

Hi,

you can share the code that still using ? i think that to speed up it you need to use MTA

I'm doing this in Objective-C, to work on iPhones and iPads, so I'm here more to ask if such thing can be implemented and how in, say, PHP, and I'd translate this to ObjC on my end.

 

What's MTA?

MTA --> multi threaded applications 

 

so you need to manage several call at the same time... i don't know if you can manage it by obj-c

Thanks for clarification. It's doable, but in all seriousness not being able to batch many requests into one by merging xml's is very limiting. I'd rather fire one request adding 10 products (and spend 1 sec) than fire 10 requests, one for each (and spend 10 seconds).
