Hi,

Create order API is taking about 5 seconds per request on average.  
So to send 3000 orders it is taking more than 4 hours.

If we request sequentially vs in batch/parallel it is taking nearly the same time.  
Ideally, parallel requests should be faster.

Please suggest how this can be improved or if there exists a bulk order API.

Hi @sunny.lakhmani

We don’t currently have a Bulk Order create Mutation on the Public API.  
We have it on the UI: [https://help.shiphero.com/knowledgeBase/13457039](https://help.shiphero.com/knowledgeBase/13457039)

Hope that helps!  
Thank!
