# Reorder tasks

```http
POST https://secure.yoprint.com/v1/api/store/{team_slug}/work_pipeline/bulk_update_position
```

- API version: v1
- Operation ID: `v1_public_work_pipeline_bulk_update_position`
- Section: Production › [Tasks](https://developer.yoprint.com/reference/tasks.md)
- Web page: https://developer.yoprint.com/reference/tasks/v1-work-pipeline-bulk-update-position/
- Authentication: `Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY`

Sets the position of several tasks at once, as the web app does when you drag tasks on a board or within a job. Returns the updated tasks.

Positions only order tasks; they don't need to be consecutive. All rows save together or none do.

## Permission

Any member of the team. No sales order permission is checked.

## Business rules

- Each task may appear once: duplicates are a 422 "Duplicate work pipeline IDs are not allowed."
- Every id must be a task of your team, or nothing is saved: 422 "Work pipeline not found!"

## Path parameters

- `team_slug` (string, required): Your team slug, shown as Team ID next to your API key in Profile. Example `your-team`.

## Request body

Content type `application/json`, required.

The body is an array of objects.

Fields:

- `id` (string, required): The task. Each task at most once.
- `position` (integer, required): The new position. Lower comes first. Minimum -2147483648. Maximum 2147483647.

### Example request

```bash
curl -X POST 'https://secure.yoprint.com/v1/api/store/your-team/work_pipeline/bulk_update_position' \

## Errors

- `401` The API key is missing or wrong (`unauthenticated`).
- `403` You are not allowed to do this. `api_access_not_in_plan`: your team's plan doesn't include API access (Pro and above, with an active subscription or trial), so every request answers this until the team upgrades. When your role lacks the permission the operation needs, the body is only `{"message": "Insufficient Permission"}`. Other refusals use the error envelope, with `unauthorized` or `user_is_not_authorized`.
- `404` Not found. `page_not_found`: the team slug is unknown, you are not a member of the team, or an id in the path is not one of this team's. `code: null`, with a message that starts "No query results for": there is no record with that id.
- `422` The request was refused and changed nothing. `validation_failed` lists what to fix in `error.fields`; other codes name a business rule, explained in `error.message`. A few checks answer with only `{"message": "..."}`. An operation that calls another service (a payment provider, a carrier, an accounting app) can answer `connect_timeout` ("Please retry again") when that service does not answer in time: the change may or may not have happened there, so read the record back before you retry.
  - When: A missing or non-integer `position`, or an id that isn't a valid hash id (`validation_failed`, details in `error.fields`). Fix: Send each task once with an integer position.
  - When: A duplicate id, or an id that isn't one of your team's tasks (`job_validation_error`). Fix: Send each task of your team once.
