Create Tasks
create_tasksBulk-create multiple task cards in one call — far cheaper than calling create_task N times. Pass tasks: an array of task objects, each with column_id (required) + the same fields create_task accepts (name, description, due_date, priority, assignee, done, sort). Returns the array of created ids in order. Stops at the first invalid item and reports its index; items before it are still created (not transactional).
