However, from the consumer's perspective, he/she may consider it "incomplete" (e.g. maybe they really really want to have all those images. I'm leaning towards a less forgiving approach to the API. If it's that important to the consumer that all images be part of the record, then the consumer needs to double check the input before calling the API. Just wondering if that's the right attitude to have. | |
