Create
Create is where destinations and content ship: Spaces, pages and posts, products, library assets, drafts, and the block builder for reusable patterns.
Before you edit anything
- Confirm Sign in and the correct active Space (Start → Workspace and Spaces).
- Open the right Create sub-area from the shell (Create hub is
/dxp/create).

Content model
- Pages — Structured content blocks per the platform schema (headings, paragraphs, lists, sections, cards, data-mapped shells, experiment slices for A/B merchandising, and extension types your operator enables).
- Rich text — Stored as span arrays and list items in JSON, not as author-written HTML blobs in the database.
- Publish — Promoting a version so public routes and edge materialisation can pick it up is a distinct action from autosave in the editor (exact labels depend on shell version).
API shape (for integrators reading this manual)
Desk JSON and mutations use paths under /dxp/api/... and legacy /api/v1/... aliases in some places. Integration and webhooks are documented for operators in repository docs; Creators usually stay in the UI.
Next steps
- New operators: read Spaces then Pages and editor.
- Commerce teams: Products after Library for asset hygiene.
