Hi @AKPWZ 

 

Would you be more specific? a REST API request information from Web Services and they could return way different results, from a single value to tables, etc, so when you ask create a macro implementing REST API calls, it will be good you also mention the REST API and the expected results, and if you identify this REST API would be helpful to understnad.

 

The quick answer to your questions are:

  •  How can or Is it possible to make REST API calls in batches using batch macro?

Yes.

  • If yes, how can we achieve it, a example or a sample workflow would be helpful to understand? 

Please, share with us an REST API we can use to answer your question.

The answer to your question is yes. Please mark this as a correct solution. I know. I do this. You may want to fine tune your use case with some additional information - things like what API? Why a batch macro? What are you looking to parameterize. etc...
