What does the Batch Count option do in a Salesforce write operation?

The Batch Count option in a Salesforce write operation is significant as it indicates the number of documents to process in a single request. This option allows developers to efficiently manage the volume of data being sent to Salesforce by grouping multiple records into one batch. By doing so, you can optimize the write operation, reducing the number of API calls, and thus enhancing overall performance.

When using batch processing, the system can handle multiple records at once, streamlining operations and efficiently utilizing resources. This is especially beneficial when dealing with large datasets, ensuring that the data is processed in a controlled, efficient manner while adhering to Salesforce’s API limits and best practices.
