What is a Collection?

A collection in the WetroCloud API acts as a container for resources such as text, files and the other supported types. Every collection is identified by a unique collection_id.

How to Create a Collection

Before you begin!
Visit the Wetrocloud console to get your API key. If you have trouble obtaining it, refer to this guide.

To create a collection, make a POST request to the /v1/create/ endpoint. This operation is simple, as no body parameters are required—only an authorization token in the header.

Request Example

curl --request POST \
--url https://api.wetrocloud.com/v1/create/ \
--header 'Authorization: Token <api-key>'

Successful Response

If the request is valid, the response will include:

  • A unique collection_id for your new collection.
  • A success confirmation.

Example Response

{
  "collection_id": "72b52a94-9dba-40eb-8018-dc425d173d00",
  "success": true
}
