Quick Start: Bulk API

You process a set of records by creating a job that contains one or more batches. The job specifies which object is being processed and what type of operation is being used. Ingest jobs are defined by CSV, XML, JSON, or binary attachments. Query jobs are defined by a SOQL statement.

A job is represented by the JobInfo resource. This resource is used to create a new job, get status for an existing job, and change status for a job.

For information about Bulk API job and batch lifespan, batch allocations, and other limits, see Bulk API and Bulk API 2.0 Limits and Allocations in the Salesforce Developer Limits and Allocations Quick Reference.

Salesforce provides an additional API, Bulk API 2.0, which uses the REST API framework to provide similar capabilities to Bulk API. Bulk API 2.0 simplifies the job creation and monitoring process. For more information on Bulk API 2.0, see the Bulk API 2.0 Developer Guide.
