public interface AssessmentTakenBatchAdminSession extends AssessmentTakenAdminSession

This session creates, updates, and deletes AssessmentsTaken in bulk. The data for create and update is provided by the consumer via the form object. OsidForms are requested for each create or update and may not be reused.

Create and update operations differ in their usage. To create an AssessmentTaken , an AssessmentTakenForm is requested using getAssessmentTakenFormsForCreate() specifying the desired assessment offered, resource, and record Types or none if no record Types are needed. Each of the returned AssessmentTakenForms will indicate that it is to be used with a create operation and can be used to examine metdata or validate data prior to creation. Once an AssessmentTakenForm is submiited to a create operation, it cannot be reused with another create operation unless the first operation was unsuccessful. Each AssessmentTakenForm corresponds to an attempted transaction.

The AssessmentTakenForms returned from getAssessmentTakenFormsForCreate() may be linked to the originating request through the peer Ids of the AssessmentTakenForm . In the case where there may be duplicates, any AssessmentTakenForm of the same peer Ids may be used for a create operation.

Once a batch of AssessmentTakenForms are submitted for create, a CreateResponse is returned for each AssessmentTakenForm , although the ordering is not defined. Only errors that pertain to the entire create operation are returned from createAssessmentsTaken() , errors specific to an individual AssessmentTakenForm are indicated in the corresponding CreateResponse . CreateResponses may be linked to the originating AssessmentTakenForm through the AssessmentTakenForm Id .

For updates, AssessmentTakenForms are requested to the AssessmentTaken Id that is to be updated using getAssessmentTakenFormsForUpdate() where the reference Id in the AssessmentTakenForm may be used to link the request. Similarly, the AssessmentTakenForm has metadata about the data that can be updated and it can perform validation before submitting the update. The AssessmentTakenForm can only be used once for a successful update and cannot be reused.

Once a batch of AssessmentTakenForms are submitted for update, an UpdateResponse is returned for each AssessmentTakenForm , although the ordering is not defined. Only errors that pertain to the entire update operation are returned from updateAssessmentsTaken() , errors specific to an individual AssessmentTakenForm are indicated in the corresponding UpdateResponse . UpdateResponses may be linked to the originating AssessmentTakenForm through the AssessmentTakenForm Id .

The delete operations delete AssessmentsTaken in bulk. To unmap an AssessmentTaken from the current Bank , the AssessmentTakenBankAssignmentSession should be used. These delete operations attempt to remove the AssessmentTaken itself thus removing it from all known Bank catalogs. Bulk delete operations return the results in DeleteResponses .
