# HTTP Request Batching

When building integrations, engineers may sometimes need to dispatch incoming batch data to different destinations. For example, a high-traffic online retail store receives hundreds of orders that need to be dispatched to different warehouses based on the delivery address through an API call that only accepts one order at a time in the payload.

Laminar solves that problem with the `lam.httpRequests` keyword in the step editor that allows users to make multiple HTTP requests in parallel.

```javascript
(payload) => {
  const { input } = payload;
  
  return {
    "lam.httpRequests": [
      {
        "method": "GET",
        "url": "{{props.baseUrl}}/send-to-warehouse/premium",
        "body": input.premiumOrders
      },
      {
        "method": "GET",
        "url": "{{props.baseUrl}}/send-to-warehouse/regular",
        "pathParams": {
          "itemId": input.regularOrders
        }
      }
    ]
  };
}
```
