      summary: Report cards seen by the user
      description: Reports the cards a user actually saw. The partner posts an array of `{id, trackData}` pairs (the `trackData` value comes verbatim from the card in the Content Fetch response) together with the view timestamp. Callers should POST to the `trackUrl` returned by the Content Fetch API, appending `partner`, `puid` and `ts`, once per list view.
