You can call REST API to run multi-instance job using jobRunOptions to pass invocation id like below.

https://xx.xx.xx.x:9443/ibm/iis/api/dscdesignerapi?api=runDSJob&jobName=JobName&projectName=ProjectName&hostName=Host.Name&getFullOutput=true&apiVersion=3.0 -d '{"jobRunOptions": {"JOBINVOCATIONID": "A2A","Warning": "5"}}'
