Parameters

request
An Leadtools.Services.JobProcessor.DataContracts.AddJobsRequest class for the jobs to add.

Return Value

An Leadtools.Services.JobProcessor.DataContracts.AddJobsResponse class containing information for the added jobs.

Remarks

Use this method to add a batch of jobs to the Job Processor database using a single call to the server WCF service. The Leadtools.Services.JobProcessor.DataContracts.AddJobsResponse class will contain the ID's (GUID's) of the added jobs. To add a single job, use AddJob.
