Suppose I am creating a ZAP for importing order to the External API. The External API is not well optimized and requires one call for creating the Order and separate call for each Order Line to attach it to the previously created Order.
If the number of Order Lines is low, say less than 10, I can execute multiple requests in a single ZAP cell with custom code and it would work just fine. However, these ZAPs have limit of 10 seconds of execution time. In case there will be Order with 1000 Order Lines, it will certainly reach the 10 seconds limit as the whole import process could take maybe a few minutes.
To solve this, I guess I need to somehow split that single ZAP that is executing all the 1000 calls to calling 1000 times another ZAP that is responsible for executing a single Order Line call.
I know it is possible to “chain” ZAPs, i.e. trigger one ZAPs after another, but in this case I need to tigger the unknown number of ZAPS and I don’t know how to do that.
How do you suggest to solve this problem? Is it even possible to create such long-running chains of ZAPs? I understand that is resource heavy and not optimal approach, but sometimes it is the only solution.
Thanks!
