Unity provides both a REST API and CLI interface which can be used for ad hoc and batch transactions or reporting in Unity. Batched processes provide a method that can be performed multiple times without introducing typographical errors between multiple executions. A use case for batch processes is the creation of a particular volume layout that needs to be the same between environments. Another use case is a batch process that generates a particular report across multiple environments.
