Description
There is no way for the API user to know how to access newly created projects through the /api/v2/projects POST call, as the call does not return identifiers. Suggest returning a JSON list with ids in the order of the project objects in the request JSON, {ids: [1,2,3,....]}

Research direction
Start at the POST handler for /api/v2/projects and trace how bulk-created projects are returned to the API caller. Verify that the response contains identifiers in the same order as the project objects in the request, using the existing API behavior or tests as a reference if available.
