Create an object

Here we describe the steps for creating a new object in your repository.

HTTP responses

Conditions

• To create an object of a specific object type, you must have permissions for that object definition

• The combination of object_title and object_type_id and workspace_id must be unique

To create a new object, make a POST request to the /objects endpoint specifying:

• Resource/endpoint destination URL

• The header for your API request

• The request body, which must include:

Here is an example API request which shows how to create a new object with the name HiBob of the object definition Application:

curl -L 'https://public-api.eu.bluedolphin.app/v1/objects' \
-H 'x-api-key: YOURAPIKEYSECRET' \
-H 'tenant: yourtenantname' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
    "object_title": "HiBob",
    "object_type_id": "640b3d7d4a28b925fcf8b8bc",
    "workspace_id": "63f620763279a10a8eefa7b0"
}'

A successful call returns a response with a 201 OK HTTP status code and the following body:

{
    "id": "644779a07470b332c82b8dg0",
    "object_title": "HiBob"
}

A new object with the id 644779a07470b332c82b8dg0 has now been created.

The response also includes the location response header that indicates the URL to the newly created object. So, the location header for the previous example would be http://public-api.eu.bluedolphin.app/v1/objects/644779a07470b332c82b8dg0.
