## writeBatch() function

Creates a write batch, used for performing multiple writes as a single atomic operation. The maximum number of writes allowed in a single WriteBatch is 500.

Unlike transactions, write batches are persisted offline and therefore are preferable when you don't need to condition your writes on read data.

<b>Signature:</b>

```typescript
export declare function writeBatch(firestore: FirebaseFirestore): WriteBatch;
```

<b>Returns:</b>

[WriteBatch](./firestore_.writebatch.md)

A `WriteBatch` that can be used to atomically execute multiple writes.
