I have created a public map called "test-map" to test this. I'm using a
Java class to create the test. The method's code is at the end of this
response.
The return code, overall and for every entry is "success". But the map and
POIs remain unchanged.
Note: I know that there are specific methods for getting "URLs" but I
checked that they are what I'm using in the test.
/****** JAVA CODE *****/

myService.setUserCredentials(user,pwd);
batchUpdateMap (myService);

BatchUtils.setBatchOperationType(feed1, BatchOperationType.QUERY);
feed1.getEntries().add(entry1);
