SInce you're doing one callout per companyId then you could return your Set<Id> companyIds as your iterable in start() then call the WS one at a time

How would I invoke that batch call from the current batch call? Also - would I have to use an custom object to hold those URLs? | |

I wasn't suggesting that, I was suggesting you pass the 2500 records back as an iterable from the start method so you could process them 1 by 1 (or, 100 by 100). You can call a batchable from a batchable from the finish() method. You could also use Queueable interface to perform the callouts from the batchable. Would need to see your code really....

| May 24, 2016 at 15:51 | comment | added | Justin | Currently, my batchable looks for records that need to have the call run, and then within the execute is making the calls - so even if my batch size is 1, if there are more than 2500 results returned, it will still hit the limit. Are you suggesting that I move the callout to a new batchable class? Can you call a batchable from a batchable? | |
