Did you check in the org if there is 'Bulk Company' account from accounts tab. Also make sure that you are connecting the same org where you imported accounts.
Click the dropdown in 'Launch' in the trailhead challenge and see which org is connected.If you have imported in developer edition then choose 'Log in with Developer Edition' from 'Launch' and connect your org.
If this helps you, please mark it as solved so that it will be available for others as a solution.

Surely they wouldn't give a sample data set without including the required company name? Did you look at my steps taken and Workbench requests, header code etc? I also explained in my text that I linked to my Dev org playground. I also tried a different org. And, the response from the challenge seems to suggest it has found the data set but not the 'Bulk Company'. I think, in my Get request, that I must stipulate in some way that I want a list of 500 rather than 4(as per the Trailhead example)? If so, how do I do that?
Hello Frederick,
I feel you have gone wrong in step 6.
In step 6 You have inserted only 4 accounts in Request body text as explained in trailhead.Instead you need to click the blue link ("these account records" ) above the green button as shown in image and download the csv file.
Inside the csv file you have 500 accounts with Bulk Company. Copy All the 500 accounts and paste it in the Request body Text.Be careful to append inverted commas for all the names while copying them into Request body text. Because the names in csv file do not come with inverted commas.
After copying these 500 company names with inverted commas.and you repeat all your other steps.I think your problem will be solved.
All the best:)
Hi Frederick, please go through the link below. It will definitely help you in passing your challenge.

all the contact were uploaded
if you want to import the csv file you must use :
{
"operation" : "insert",
"object" : "Account",
"contentType" : "CSV",
"lineEnding" : "LF"
}
And the 500 accounts will be imported
Its late, but I hope this helps someone...
When I tried, the original file provided by the challenge in notepad had all values with double quotes, I guess thats the problem.
Open the file in excel, just save it and follow the steps (postman) again. It worked for me
