+# mod_muc_batched_probe
+
+This module allows you to probe the presences of multiple MUC occupants or members.
+
+XEP-0045 makes provision for MUC presence probes, which allows an entity to
+probe for the presence information of a MUC occupant (or offline member).
+
+See here: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0045.html#bizrules-presence
+
+This module creates the possibility to probe with a single IQ stanza the
+presence information of multiple JIDs, instead of having to send out a presence
+probe stanza per JID.
+
+The IQ stanza needs to look as follows:
+
+```
+   <iq from="hag66@shakespeare.lit/pda"
+      id="zb8q41f4"
+      to="chat.shakespeare.lit"
+      type="get">
+
+      <query xmlns="http://jabber.org/protocol/muc#user">
+         <item jid="hecate@shakespeare.lit"/>
+         <item jid="crone1@shakespeare.lit"/>
+         <item jid="wiccarocks@shakespeare.lit"/>
+         <item jid="hag66@shakespeare.lit"/>
+      </query>
+   </iq>
+```
+
+
+
+## Configuration
+
+Under your MUC component, add `muc_batched_probe` to `modules_enabled`
+
+```
+   Component "conference.example.org" "muc"
+      modules_enabled = {
+               "muc_batched_probe";
+      }
+```
+
