Exactly what I was looking for. I can get the job done within 1 million characters (JSON string size in the script parameter). Sorry that I did not find that myself. No way I'm going to bring 3rd party plugins into the equation as I'm convinced a Filemaker script can loop through the content of a JSON string and update records accordingly. If anyone has a good example of a script that parses JSON and loops through with record updates, fantastic. That's what I'll be building near term. Data API call that initiates the server side script passing a stringified JSON object array containing the values to update into the existing Filemaker records. Kirk

I need to send a JSON string containing 1000+ objects with data to be replaced into fields in a Filemaker layout. Currently looping a NodeJS method which is taking a large Node heap allocation, and clearly the ideal way to do this is to send the data for all records in one request and loop through it within Filemaker via a script. Closest thing I can see in the documentation is - run a script and pass a parameter that is the JSON string. But what is the size limitation on the parameter? Anyone actually performed a bulk operation in this manner? Kirk
