@tsmith023 Is generate.fetch_objects_by_ids also needed? I removed it in the 2nd commit for now.

Hi @tibor-reiss, thank you so much for this contribution!

I don't think implementing generate.fetch_objects_by_ids is necessary. We do have generate.fetch_objects but in hindsight this method isn't actually particularly useful; I wonder how many people really use it 🤷

The linting check is failing with a black error. You will need to install the version of black defined in requirements-devel.txt and run it on the codebase to fix it!

generate.fetch_objects_by_ids might actually make sense here if you only want to generate something for a few IDs. But that could be done in a separate PR

I added back the generate part.
