  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "outputType": "datatable",
    "resources": [
      {
        "type": "text",
        "content": "Company A raised $12M in Series A funding in Spain. Company B raised $35M in Series B funding in France. Company C bootstrapped in Germany and focuses on supply-chain AI."
      }
    ],
    "text": "Create columns for company, country, funding stage, funding amount, and positioning notes."

* Put raw facts in `resources`.
* Put column instructions and normalization rules in `text`.
* Poll `/content/Status/{id}` and download with `/data-tables/{id}/download`.
