Is it possible to create multiple incident records with the REST API?

I'm currently writing a program in Python that creates a record in an instance.

It is possible to create a record for each case with the REST API, but it takes 1 second for each case.

Is it possible to create multiple records with a single REST command?

I don't know how to use REST API Explorer, so I specify the table name to get the basic code, process the contents and use it.

 

One record can be created with the following command.

I am wondering if it is possible to create multiple records with one command instead of creating multiple records by iterative processing.

#Need to install requests package for python
#easy_install requests
import requests

# Set the request parameters
url = 'https://dev~~~.service-now.com/api/now/table/incident'

# Eg. User name="admin", Password="admin" for this code sample.
user = 'admin'
pwd = 'admin'

# Set proper headers
headers = {"Content-Type":"application/json","Accept":"application/json"}

record = f'{{"caller_id":"admin","short_description":"Test_Record2022"}}'
record = record.encode('utf-8')

# Do the HTTP request
response = requests.post(url, auth=(user, pwd), headers=headers ,data= record)

# Check for HTTP codes other than 200
if response.status_code != 200: 
    print('Status:', response.status_code, 'Headers:', response.headers, 'Error Response:',response.json())
    exit()

# Decode the JSON response into a dictionary and use the data
data = response.json()
print(data)
