Hi,

Every month we are going to do a large sync on price data. And to find the best approach we were wondering at what batch size the graphql API starts to struggle?

It is most relevant for the Create/Persist batch size 🙂

Hi, it is possible to create many objects at the same time, but I dont know what the limit is.

> **[Mutations | Appfarm Documentation](https://docs.appfarm.io/reference/data-model/graphql/mutations#persist-create-many-batch-create)**

It would probably depend on the size and number of properties on the query.
