update records filemaker script faster
I wrote a simple Amazon PHP rest request to marketing services to pull the product category to update FM records weekly using Smart Pill. The product category for some unknown reason changes on Amazon periodically and messes up the accounting. What is the best way to implement the Filemaker script ? The way I have it now is a simple loop through the records, stop on each record, do the rest request, set field, go to the next record? Amazon can pull multiple requests at once but only a limited number, like 6 so I don't see another way to do it. Plus this way I can do error checking on each page and if the site is slow re run the rest request if I don't get a result. IT would be nice if it was faster
