Bulk operations perform tasks that are time-consuming and frequently involve large-scale processing of data. Examples of bulk operations are bulk e-mail, bulk import, bulk delete, and campaign activity propagation. These types of operations are best suited to run in the background as an asynchronous operation.

The class for bulk operations is bulkoperation. You typically do not create an instance of the bulkoperation class directly but instead use one of the bulk operation messages, such as BulkDelete. By sending the bulk message, a bulk operation is created in the asynchronous service queue.
