Apex Code Development You need to sign in to do that
Don't have an account?
bharath11r Call Webservices from BatchApex
Hello ,
I recently started developing in Apex with .net background and I am looking for insight to solve the below problem.
I have 30K carriers(Account) objects and need to update them on a nightly basis from a webservice (like insurance etc ).
I was able to successfully implement the webservice and update a single account but now I have to do that in a batch
Class UpdateService-- Take AccountObject and gets the latest information and does a DML.
ClassBatchAccounts--Gets the list of all Accounts and pass each account to above class
ClasScheduleBatch--Call above BatchAccounts(every day inthe morning).
When i implement this i am getting too many callouts.
I need to call webservice for each account so how can i do that in ApexBatch?
Any insight would be helpfull...
Limit for toal number of callouts in a request in 10.

In Batch Apex each batch is treated as fresh request and all governor limits are reset for each batch. You can reduce size of records processed in each batch to 10 to workaround your situaiton.
Database.executebatch(new myBatchclass(),10);
Works for me, Thanks!
