# BulkCreateSteps

# Package: onlinePrograms

# Namespace: StepsService

# Method link: https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-management/online-programs/steps/bulk-create-steps.md

## Permission Scopes:
Manage Online Programs: SCOPE.CHALLENGES.MANAGE

## Introduction

Creates up to 100 steps in a single API call.

Specify the parent section in each step's `sectionId`.
The service derives the parent program automatically.
To create quiz steps, create or clone the quizzes separately, then specify their IDs in each step's `quizOptions.id`.

This is the preferred bulk-create method.
To create a single step, call [CreateStep](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-management/online-programs/steps/create-step.md).

      description: {

);

```

### bulkCreateSteps (self-hosted)
Self-hosted SDK calls require you to [create a client](https://dev.wix.com/docs/sdk/articles/work-with-the-sdk/about-the-wix-client.md).

```javascript
import { createClient } from '@wix/sdk';
import { steps } from '@wix/online-programs';
// Import the auth strategy for the relevant access type
// Import the relevant host module if needed

const myWixClient = createClient ({
  modules: { steps },
  // Include the auth strategy and host as relevant
});


async function bulkCreateSteps(steps,options) {
  const response = await myWixClient.steps.bulkCreateSteps(steps,options);
};
```
