Research direction

Start with graph/patterns/dictionary.md and review its existing example for a client-defined key. Determine the documented request pattern for retrieving multiple keys, then add an example that answers the issue; done when the guideline clearly explains how clients request more than one key.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Hello team,

In the https://github.com/microsoft/api-guidelines/blob/vNext/graph/patterns/dictionary.md, it mentioned that the keys must be defined by the client. However, there were only examples for client to specify a single key (by appending it in the path). What if the client is interested in multiple keys? Do we have an example on what the request should be?
