createLanguage

Requires permission platform:language:manage.

Creates a language record. Languages are shared by every organization, so this needs the platform permission to manage languages, which only platform administrators hold.

Errors: a failed call returns a GraphQL errors entry, not a field on the result, and data may be null or partial. Read the entry's extensions.code and message; every shape and code is in the Error reference.

Example:

GraphQL

mutation CreateLanguage($data: CreateLanguageInput!) {
  createLanguage(data: $data) {
    id
    code
    name
    nativeName
    createdAt
    direction
  }
}

cURL

curl -X POST "https://<api-host>/graphql" \
