    We can't seem to make the endpoint for posting new items in bulk work anymore:

    ```
    <?xml version=\"1.0\"?>
    2026-04-01T21:54:07.286414550Z Link (https) error occurred400Bad Request
    ```

    We see this very error message, even when the same item can be uploaded as a single item to the `POST /item` endpoint.

    Hi fnwbr,

    Do you have the POST data you're trying to use for which you get the error?

    Hello Fred,

    I have the same bulk API issue. Thank you for asking for POST data - here are my findings that confirm the problem:

    Problem:
    POST /item/bulk endpoint has not been working for several days now (HTTP 400 Bad Request), while POST /item for individual items continues to work perfectly.

    Test POST Data for Bulk Request:

    type=fixedPrice
    items[0][id_country]=2
    items[0][id_category]=710
    items[0][fixed_price]=1.0
    items[0][currency]=EUR
    items[0][title]=TEST BULK ITEM
    items[0][personal_reference]=TEST_BULK_1744823456
    items[0][qty]=1
    items[0][duration]=10
    items[0][description]=Test item for bulk API


    Comparison - Working Single Request:

    type=fixedPrice
    item[id_country]=2
    item[id_category]=710
    item[fixed_price]=1.0
    item[currency]=EUR
    item[title]=TEST SINGLE
    item[personal_reference]=TEST_SINGLE_1744823456
    item[qty]=1
    item[duration]=10
    item[description]=Test single item


    Response from Bulk Endpoint:

    <?xml version="1.0"?>

    Link (https)
    An error occurred
    400
    Bad Request



    Response from Single Endpoint (for comparison):
    Works correctly with valid validation messages for missing fields.

    Additional Tests Performed:
    1. Bulk request without 'type' field -> Same 400 error
    2. Minimal bulk request with just one item -> 400 error
    3. Different categories tested -> 400 error
    4. Token refresh works -> 400 error

    Summary:
    - I can confirm the same bulk endpoint issue (/item/bulk) returning 400 Bad Request
    - The single endpoint (/item) continues to work correctly on our side too
    - This confirms the issue affects multiple developers/systems
    - The POST data structure appears to be correct (based on API documentation)

    Additional Context:
    We have implemented a fallback to single item uploads which works fine, but the bulk functionality is important for our workflow efficiency.



    Thank you very much for your support!

    Thanks for confirming. I can’t share example payloads right now because I’m on the go, but I can also say that sending the EXACT SAME request payload works on the endpoint for a single item, but not for bulk items.

    Hi ak-lexikon,

    Thanks for the data. There was indeed an issue in the code. I applied a fix, can you try a bulk request and see if the issue is resolved for you?
