Creating Bulk Tents - Tented Help Center

Endpoint

POST /v1/tents/bulk

This endpoint creates a bulk job that fans out template-based tent generations across multiple items.

POST /v1/tents/bulk is an async admission endpoint. The immediate response confirms which items were accepted or rejected and returns a bulk_job_id for polling.

Request Body

Top-Level Fields

Field	Type	Required	Notes
`template_id`	`string`	Yes	Approved template ID to reuse across the whole batch
`items`	`array`	Yes	Between `1` and `25` items
`client_job_descriptor`	`string`	No	Optional label for the bulk job
`default_tent_name_prefix`	`string`	No	Used when an item does not provide `tent_name`
`start_index`	`integer`	No	Starting counter for generated tent names. Defaults to `1`
`auto_publish`	`boolean`	No	Applies to the entire bulk request
`metadata`	`object`	No	Optional job-level metadata echoed back in responses

Item Fields

Field	Type	Required	Notes
`input_data`	`object`	Yes	Structured personalization data for this tent
`instructions`	`string`	No	Additional item-specific instructions
`client_item_id`	`string`	No	Your own per-item identifier for reconciliation
`tent_name`	`string`	No	Overrides batch naming defaults
`custom_page_alias`	`string`	No	Requested published path for this item. Requires top-level `auto_publish: true`
`include_brand`	`boolean`	No	Pulls workspace branding into this item’s prompt
`asset_ids`	`string[]`	No	Up to `5` asset IDs to clone into this generated tent

Important Rules

All items in one bulk request must use the same template_id
The template must exist in the same workspace as the API key
The template must already be approved and have approved content available
Tented generates every tent_id; callers cannot supply or override it
Bulk requests support partial success. Some items can be accepted while others are rejected
auto_publish is batch-wide, but each item can still request its own custom_page_alias

Partial Success

Bulk requests are not all-or-nothing. Individual items can be rejected during admission while the rest of the batch proceeds.

Possible item-level rejection codes include:

INVALID_ITEM
NOT_FOUND
INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS

Naming Behavior

If an item omits tent_name, Tented generates a name using the batch defaults:

default_tent_name_prefix when provided
otherwise client_job_descriptor when provided
otherwise Bulk tent

The generated counter starts at start_index and increments per item.

Auto-Publish Behavior

Set top-level auto_publish to true to publish all accepted items after generation succeeds. Each item can optionally request a different custom_page_alias. Alias rules match POST /v1/tents:

Maximum 100 characters
Lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens, underscores, and dots only
Must start with a letter or number
Must not be a UUID
Must not use reserved words such as api, admin, submit, or assets
Use / to publish at the domain root

custom_page_alias requires top-level auto_publish: true. If auto_publish is false, the affected item is rejected during admission.

Polling For Results

Use the returned bulk_job_id with GET /v1/bulk-jobs/{bulkJobId} to track aggregate progress and read final published URLs.

Next: Retrieve Bulk Job Status

Poll the bulk job until all accepted items complete or fail.
