Bulk updates - delayed appearance.
Colin Kerr
on 26 May 2023
I've noticed a few times that a bulk update can take a while to appear. Normally a few minutes at most but at the moment it seems to be much longer, hours maybe. I know the message I sent had been received as I get an RC = 202 as normal. I sent a non bulk update via the browser and it appeared imediately.
Is this something I have to get used to ? It's a problem when I first set up a device and look at Thingspeak to check it's sending messages correctly (I send a bulk update with 1 message when it first connets). Even a single data point sent in batch form is not appearing.
Update: the data has started appearing but it's still hours behind.

Hi Colin,
Can you tell us when did you start noticing the delay in hours for the bulk updates?
Hours is surprising, though there is no guarantee for ingestion time of Bulk updates. My experience is that bulk updates are generally processed within a minute. The single updates are always processed much faster since its a one step instead of two step process. Ill report it to the team and make sure there is no slowdown in the bulk processing, thanks!
