/v1/display-foldersCreate a display folder
operation ID: post_v1_display_folders
Overview
Create a display folder. Display operations store, validate, resolve, export, and navigate visualization documents used by operator interfaces.
When to use it
- Use it when an application needs to create a display folder.
- Use it when a user interface needs to organize, save, validate, or resolve an operational display.
Quick example
Set the base URL and replace generated identifiers or credentials with values from your installation.
cURL
curl --request POST \
--url "$ORDINATE_URL/v1/display-folders" \
--header "Authorization: Bearer $ORDINATE_TOKEN" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--data '{
"name": "string"
}'Expected output · 201
Created folder
Example 201 output
{
"folder_id": "00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000001",
"parent_id": "00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000001",
"name": "string",
"tx_id": 0
}The cURL request sends the smallest contract-derived body and asks OrdinateDB to create a display folder. The documented 201 response is created folder.
How it works
Display documents are versioned independently from their folders, while resolve and time routes prepare a document for a specific asset and viewing window.
