# Bulk create depots

> POST /dn/depots/bulk creates multiple depots at once. Each entry needs a name and geocodable address; the API returns geocoded data for all.

Create multiple depot locations in a single call. Each entry in the request array must include at least a `name` and an `address` that the platform can geocode. The API processes up to 100 entries per request. If a depot with the same `name` already exists, that entry updates it instead of creating a duplicate. The response returns the full depot objects with assigned `id` values and geocoded coordinates for every successfully created depot.

For updating or deleting multiple depots, see [Bulk update](/api-reference/depots/bulk-update) or [Bulk delete](/api-reference/depots/bulk-delete).
