Verified steps

  1. POST to /services/data/vXX.0/composite with a compositeRequest array where each subrequest has method, url, referenceId, and body
  2. Set allOrNone: true if all subrequests must succeed atomically; set to false to allow partial success
  3. Reference the result of a previous subrequest in a later one using the syntax @{referenceId.id} in the url or body of downstream requests
  4. Order subrequests so that referenced operations appear before their dependents in the array
  5. Inspect the compositeResponse array where each item maps to its referenceId and contains httpStatusCode and body
  6. With allOrNone false, check each individual httpStatusCode to identify partial failures and log referenceIds that did not succeed
