Economy V2: TransferInventoryItems

Trying to transfer items between two players by using different StackId's results in a

{
    "code": 400,
    "status": "BadRequest",
    "error": "InvalidParams",
    "errorCode": 1000,
    "errorMessage": "Request cannot specify different stacks for each inventory"
}

But what would be the reasoning for this? If I as player 1, split one of my items in two stacks and I want to transfer that new stack to another player, it should be possible.

Also, if you specify "default" for both stacks it will still give you this error.

Is this issue happening when transferring within one player?

Between two different players.

I agree that this should be possible. This is currently a technical limitation in public preview. We hope to have it addressed for general availability.

As a follow up question, TransferInventoryItems, although it implies it would do multiple items, it actually does only one. I know there is ExecuteInventoryOperations, but that one doesn't allow it between two different players. Will TransferInventoryItems support multiple items in the future?

We've discussed adding a `ExecuteTransferOperations` API (or something like that) for that scenario. I suspect that once we address the limitation above it will be a feature we add.

This also affects transferring items between one player's collections. Separately, it would be helpful to be able to batch those, for example if i have a collection of 'new rewards' i want to transfer into a main inventory.

Yep. Completely agree that this is primary scenario for batch transfer. No ETA on delivery yet, but it's something we're still tracking.
