Batch Operations

Generate multiple images from a single template with different variables. Ideal for bulk generation of social cards, certificates, or personalized content.

Endpoints

Method	Endpoint	Description
`POST`	`/templates/{uid}/batch-render`	Start batch job
`GET`	`/templates/batch/{batchId}/results`	Get results
`POST`	`/templates/batch/{batchId}/cancel`	Cancel batch

Two input modes

The same endpoint accepts rows either inline or from a spreadsheet: Rows mode — send variableSets, an array of variable objects, one per render:

{
  "variableSets": [
    { "name": "Maya Chen", "course": "Advanced TypeScript" },
    { "name": "Sam Ortiz", "course": "Advanced TypeScript" }
  ],
  "format": "png"
}

CSV mode — point at a hosted CSV and map its columns onto template variables. Every row becomes a render, so a spreadsheet of recipients becomes a batch without writing the rows out:

{
  "csvUrl": "https://example.com/recipients.csv",
  "mappings": {
    "name": "attendee_name",
    "course": "session"
  },
  "format": "png"
}

mappings is { "templateVariable": "CSV Column" } — the key is the template variable, the value is the CSV column that fills it. The CSV must be publicly fetchable — the server downloads it once when the batch starts.

Batch Status

Status	Description
`pending`	Job created, waiting to start
`processing`	Currently rendering images
`completed`	All items processed successfully
`partial`	Completed with some failures
`failed`	All items failed
`cancelled`	Job was cancelled

Webhook Notification

When a batch job completes, Pictify sends a batch.completed event to your webhook URL (if provided):

{
  "event": "batch.completed",
  "data": {
    "batchId": "batch_xyz789",
    "status": "completed",
    "totalCount": 100,
    "completedCount": 100,
    "failedCount": 0
  }
}

Limits

Plan	Max Items per Batch	Concurrent Batches
Free	10	1
Pro	100	3
Business	1,000	10
Enterprise	10,000	Unlimited

Best Practices

Use webhooks — don’t poll for results; use webhooks for notification
Handle failures gracefully — some items may fail; implement retry logic
Batch appropriately — group related renders; avoid tiny batches
Monitor progress — track batch status for long-running jobs
Clean up — results are stored for 7 days; download and store permanently if needed
