400 BAD_REQUEST : application/json : No import test job was created.The content may be in the wrong format or a job might already be in progress. Each user can only have one import job running at each given time. So if a job is running and the user tries to start another one, this will result in a 400 response. Also there is a maximum of 1000 tests that can be imported each time, if the input contains more tests than this, the request will also result in a 400 response.
