Create learners in bulk, give them content and optionally send invites.

Thought Industries API: https://cotlet.dev/docs/api/thought-industries.md

`POST https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/thought-industries/learners`

Access: write. Confirm: waits for the user's OK before it runs.

Runs Users > Learners > gear icon > Bulk Import Learners for you. Each learner needs first_name, last_name and email. All content_ids are given to every learner in the batch: courses, webinars, articles and single SCO content. One call takes up to 1,000 learners. The app queues the import, so enrollments show up a few minutes later in list_content_actions. A learner who already exists gets no invite, and content access can only be removed one learner at a time afterwards. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `learners` | array | yes | Objects with first_name, last_name and email, up to 1,000. |
| `content_ids` | array | no | Content IDs from list_courses that every learner in the batch gets. |
| `send_invite` | boolean | no | Send an email invitation to new learners. Default: false. |
| `invite_message` | string | no | Message added to the invitation email. |
