# Move up to 100 cards to a column in one transaction

`POST /cards/bulk/move`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://craaft.io/api/v1`
- URL: `https://craaft.io/api/v1/cards/bulk/move`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Without `targetProjectId`, sweeps the cards to a column on their
own board - every id must belong to the same board (400
otherwise). With `targetProjectId`, moves the batch to that board
instead (same workspace only, mirroring the single-card move).
Moved cards append to the end of the target column in request
order. Within-board column changes are recorded to each card's
activity log. All-or-nothing; no notification emails.

## Request body

- object
  - `ids` string[], required
  - `column` string, required: Target column.key
  - `targetProjectId` string, uuid: Optional destination board (same workspace)

## Response `200`

- `422`: Target column doesn't exist
