Create a collection

POST/api/v2/workspaces/{slug}/collections/

Collections group wiki pages in a workspace. Create a collection.

Path Parameters

slug:requiredstring

The workspace slug. It appears in your Plane URLs — in https://app.plane.so/my-team/projects/, the slug is my-team.

Body Parameters

access:optionalstring

Who can see this.

is_default:optionalboolean

Make this the default for its parent. Setting it clears the flag on the previous default.

is_global:optionalboolean

Whether this lives at the workspace level rather than inside a project.

logo_props:optionalstring

Editor-owned logo descriptor. Pass back what you read rather than composing it by hand.

name:optionalstring

Display name.

sort_order:optionalnumber

Manual ordering weight. Lower sorts first.

Response shaping

fields:optionalstring

Comma-separated list of fields to return. Unrequested keys are omitted, not returned as null. id always comes back. Pass all for every requestable field. An unknown name is a 400. See Sparse fields.

Requestable here: access, created_at, created_by_id, id, is_default, is_global, logo_props, name, owned_by_id, page_ids, sort_order.

expand:optionalstring

Comma-separated relations to embed: owned_by.

Expansion is separate-key — ?expand=state keeps state_id and adds a state object next to it. ?fields= and ?expand= are independent: naming a relation in ?fields= is a 400, and expanded objects survive field filtering. See Expanding relations.
