# Bulk import job postings

`POST /ai-apply/job-feeds/{job_feed_id}/bulk-import`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.kombo.dev/v1`
- URL: `https://api.kombo.dev/v1/ai-apply/job-feeds/{job_feed_id}/bulk-import`
- Auth: HTTP bearer
- TypeScript: <https://skmtc.dev/kombo/apis/kombo-api/docs/ai-apply/job-feeds/:job_feed_id/bulk-import/post.ts> (a function with typed inputs; its response is checked against the schema)

Bulk import job postings into a job feed using NDJSON (newline-delimited JSON) format.

**Request Format:**
Send one JSON object per line. Each line represents a job posting to import.

**Example Request Body:**
```
{"url":"https://careers.acme.com/job/1","career_site_label":"ACME Corp"}
{"url":"https://careers.acme.com/job/2","career_site_label":"ACME Corp","job_code":"ENG-123"}
{"url":"https://careers.acme.com/job/3","career_site_label":"ACME Corp","location":{"country":"US","postal_code":"94115"}}
```

**Behavior:**
- Career sites are automatically created based on unique `career_site_label` values
- Job postings are identified by the combination of URL + career_site_label + job_code
- Existing job postings are updated; new ones are created and queued for parsing
- Job postings from previous imports that are not included in the current import are archived

**Constraints:**
- Maximum request size: 35 MB
- Timeout: 5 minutes
- One concurrent import per job feed

## Path parameters
