Signature:

setPosition(id: string, x: number, y: number, doNotCalculateExtents?: boolean): Record<string, {
        original: PointXY;
        current: PointXY;
    }>;

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
id	string	ID of the node/group to move
x	number	Left position
y	number	Top position.
doNotCalculateExtents	boolean	If true, do not recalculate the layout extents. we use this during a layout run, as we dont need to calculate the extents until it is finished. But for a single setPosition call, we do want to recalculate extents.
