Post 365 records with axios simultaneously

I have a object of 365 elements like this:

data = [ { "a": "a", "b": "b", "c": "c", "date": 1663192800000},
{ "a": "a", "b": "b", "c": "c", "date": 1663293800000}
{ "a": "a", "b": "b", "c": "c", "date": 1643294800000}
...
]

I have tried something like this, but the process is slow:

 for(var i = 0; i<this.data.length; i++){
          Promise.all([axios.post( "URL",this.data[i])]).then((response) => this.getData())         
        }

How can I speed up the sending of data to the db?

I think it would be better to update the backend code with batch insert and send all entries as one request, if possible.

But if this is the only way, First, your code is not efficient because you use Promise.all on each element. it would be better to use map with the data inside the Promise.all to resolve altogether.

Promise.all(this.data.map(i => axios.post("URL",i)).then((response) => this.getData())

The approach is wrong. You are performing a single request with Promise.all for each array member this way.

Promise.all should receive the "already mapped" data as a axios post.

// Maps the data array into an array of functions that will return a axios call 

const myPromiseList = this.data.map((thing) =>
    () => axios.post("URL", thing));
Promise.all(myPromiseList)
