Bulk Operations

Squizy supports bulk update and bulk delete operations for all managed entities.

Bulk Update

Multiple records can be updated simultaneously using JSON Patch (RFC 6902) format. See the Update API reference for full endpoint details.

PATCH /api/product
Content-Type: application/json-patch+json

{
  "ids": ["AB-001", "AB-002", "AB-003"],
  "globalPatch": [
    { "op": "replace", "path": "/status", "value": "OUT_OF_STOCK" }
  ]
}

The globalPatch is applied to all records in ids. You can also provide specificPatches to apply per-record changes:

{
  "ids": ["AB-001", "AB-002"],
  "globalPatch": [
    { "op": "replace", "path": "/status", "value": "OUT_OF_STOCK" }
  ],
  "specificPatches": {
    "AB-001": [
      { "op": "replace", "path": "/price", "value": 149.99 }
    ]
  }
}

Field-Level Control

Not all fields can be bulk-updated. Use @SquizyField to control this:

// This field cannot be changed in bulk operations
@SquizyField(bulkUpdatable = false)
@NotNull
private String name;

bulkUpdatable defaults to true for updatable fields. Setting updatable = false on a field implicitly disables bulk updates as well.

Bulk Delete

Multiple records can be deleted in a single request:

DELETE /api/product?id=AB-001&id=AB-002&id=AB-003

Response: 204 No Content

Access Control

Bulk operations require the same authorities as their single-record counterparts (update for bulk update, delete for bulk delete). See RBAC.

Events

Bulk operations publish the same SquizyEntityAccessEvent as single-record operations, with all affected entities included in the values list. See Events.
