I don't know if it's possible to annotate your API like that with Swagger. But my suggestion is to simplify/unify your API. If you think about it, if you're going to support bulk (meaning an array of objects) then there's no reason to have a special treatment of a single object. You should just change the API to always take an array and if someone wants to do a single object then thats just the case of a list with a single element object :: Nil.
