Batch updating or creating profiles

This endpoint allows developers to create or update multiple profiles at once.
This can be useful for one-off or incremental imports to Omneo.
It is not recommended to use Batch importing to save on API calls, as these profiles will be added to a queue, and are subject to the workload of other jobs in the queue.

Because this process is added as a background process, the results of these profiles are not available as an API response. Instead, when a profile is successfully updated or create the appropriate profile.updated or profile.created webhook event will be triggered.

Attribute	Description
profiles `ARRAY`	An array of Profile Objects. Omneo will use each record in this array to create or update an omneo profile based on the `match_criteria`
match_criteria `STRING`	The criteria to match the batch members with existing Omneo profiles. Specify 'email' to match by email. Or specify an identity handle

Specifying a `match_criteria`

The match_criteria is used to match members in your batch, to existing Omneo Profiles.
If no profile is found using this criteria, a new Omneo profile will be created instead.

Match criteria can be:
"email" which will attempt to match the email specified in your profile batch

A simple batch import matching by email could look like the below:

{
    "match_criteria": "email",
    "profiles" : [
        {
            "email" : "demoemail1@gmail.com",
            "first_name" : "John", 
            "last_name" : "Smith", 
          	"gender": "male"
        },
        {
            "email" : "demoemail2@gmail.com",
            "first_name" : "Jim", 
            "last_name" : "Jones"
        }
    ]
}

Any other value will attempt to match within your profile batch's identities by the handle

To match profiles by a specified identifier against the profile, simply specify the name of the identity handle in the match_criteria

Omneo will search for the value in your batch profiles[].identities array.
And will attempt to match an Omneo profile with a matching identity.

{
    "match_criteria": "shopify_id",
    "profiles" : [
        {
            "email" : "newemail@omneo.io",
            "first_name" : "Johnny", 
            "last_name" : "James",
            "identities" : [
                {
                    "handle" : "shopify_id",
                    "identifier" : "01F3P90M3PCTE22QYJ5NZWVZQ3"
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}
