Batch

Submitting batch bundles (designated by batch on Bundle.type) allows you to submit sets of actions. These actions, unlike terminology, are non-atomic (an error occurring in one operation will not prevent other actions from being applied on the server). Use batch if you want to evaluate multiple actions in a single request but don't care or do not want all actions to fail if one fails.
