move_view_to_section
Idempotent
Relocate views into sections or reorder sections and views within an Airtable table's sidebar.
Instructions
Move a view (or a section itself) within the sidebar. The single endpoint covers four user actions depending on the arguments:
viewId + sectionId → put the view INTO that section at targetIndex
viewId + sectionId: null → move the view OUT to ungrouped at table-level targetIndex
sectionId-as-viewIdOrSectionId + targetIndex → reorder the section among other sections
viewId + same section → reorder the view within its current section For section reorders, targetIndex is into the table's top-level mixed viewOrder; for in-section moves, it's into that section's viewOrder.
