It doesn't look like stock updates can be performed in bulk. We either have an issue with documentation or functionality. I will create a ticket to have this investigated. Stock will have to be updated individually via https://docs.clover.com/clover-platform/reference/inventory-1#inventoryupdateitemstock-1.

Is this still the case @david - is there any way to bulk update stock?

I don't see any movement on the issue I created so I assume that it is still the case.

Thanks David. Is this also the case for tax rates, categories, and modifiers? I have had no luck updating those with the bulk update as well.

Yep, don't trust the API reference ...

So it seems David is no longer with Clover (deactivated) - Is there another team member than can give us an understanding on this issue? Without having it resolved, the servers that house the API will struggle as it takes multiple requests to handle this as opposed to a single request to handle multiple items.
