Batch Update - SharePoint
Hi Guys, Today i would like to explain you about the batch update process in SharePoint. Batch (Group of items), the meaning is to update a large number of items to the SharePoint list by passing the values as XML elements. Consider if u want to update the list with more than 100 items. In this case if u use foreach it will be very expensive and it suck ur time. Moreover if u use SPListItem.Update() it takes 2.8secs for updating a single item. If u r using ProcessBatchUpdate it takes 30 secs to update to a maximum of 200 - 300 items based on ur requirement. So my suggestion is to use ProcessBatchUpdate for Adding, Updating and Deleting a large number of items from the SharePoint List. Lets see how to perform this command through the SharePoint object model Consider that u r adding items in the list with Title field as a running numbers. This is for example ah First of all u should format the XML file for Inserting, Updating or Deleting the items in list StringBuilder methodBu
