If you're planning on using Transparent Content Services, the batch API is included in that module.

Important: COMPATIBILITY
The batch API is only compatible with Alfresco v6.2 and higher.

Retrieve the latest batch API version from Support

Inside the Tomcat folder which contains ACS (referred to as TOMCAT_HOME), add the following folder if it does not exist /modules/platform

Configuration Options

These properties can be added to the alfresco-global.properties file

batchapi.behaviours.disableall: If this is false, reattempts to import data can cause an infinite loop.
batchapi.rules.disableall: If this is false, reattempts to import data can cause an infinite loop.

Important: RULES AND BEHAVIORS
Both of these values must be true to avoid conflicts with Alfresco's content store rules and behaviours

batchapi.jsonthreadcount: The amount of threads to delegate to the json batch integration queue. Default: 20
batchapi.batchthreadcount: The amount of threads to delegate to the batch integration queue. Default: 50
batchapi.userid: The Alfresco User to perform the Batch API actions as. Must be a valid Alfresco user. Default: admin
batchapi.licensekey: This property is Required and does NOT have a default. The license key of the 3Sixty instance you are connecting to. This does not have a default. Jobs will not write batches to Alfresco if this value is not set with a valid license key.

Versioning

Alfresco turns on the initial version and auto versioning by default. However, this can cause Alfresco to have an incorrect initial version, such as version 0.1, which will lead to incorrect numbering of your version series. In order to make versioning work with the Batch API, add the following mapping to your job

(source type) ----Aspect Mapping----> cm:versionable

Or, as an alternative, disable some of Alfresco versioning features with the following

version.store.initialVersion=false
version.store.enableAutoVersioning=false
