Hi Eric, thanks for the response.

I'm using TargetingIdeaService in 2 ways, both of which don't seem to
allow more than one request at a time.

RelatedToUrlSearchParameter docs state
For KEYWORD queries, only one URL may be submitted.
and indeed it doesn't work if I try to provide more than 1 URL.

Second, I'm using RelatedToKeywordSearchParameter to find keywords
related to some other keyword. I can provide a list of keywords in
this case, but there is no way to find out which returned keyword is
related to which submitted keyword. The only way I can think of to get
this information is to submit each keyword as a separate
RelatedToKeywordSearchParameter.

Any ideas on how to best deal with these limitations?
