Good afternoon, everyone!I can’t use API v3 to insert multiple records in one post request. If you insert only one record, then everything goes well.I ask for your help.  
p.s I work with a mysql database

Hi @OVERS1ZZEEEE

Please see our [API documentation](https://nocodb.com/apis/v3/data#tag/Table-Records/operation/db-data-table-row-create) for the request payload your input is not correct.

You can use following as a starting place:

```auto
[
  {
    "fields": {
      "client": 1,
      "department": "record #1"
    }
  },
  {
    "fields": {
      "client": 2,
      "department": "record #2"
    }
  }
]

```

Note that, you should avoid providing ID and you should pass an array of records.
