Creates an index.
Registers a named index in the caller's own org and answers the dialect's EnqueuedTask. It is idempotent: creating an index that already exists returns the same receipt and changes nothing, which is what lets a client create on startup without checking first.
primaryKey is optional — the first write establishes one when it is omitted.
An index is a ROW here rather than a table, so an unusual uid is stored
verbatim instead of being sanitised into a schema name.
The 202 and its enqueued task are DIALECT COMPATIBILITY, not a promise of
later work: the write is already applied when this answers. A client that
polls waitForTask resolves immediately.
Request
2 fields, body application/json (required).
| Field | In | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
primaryKey | body | string | — | PrimaryKey is the document field that identifies a row. |
uid | body | string | — | UID is the index's name within the org. |
Response
| Status | Body | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
202 | indexEnqueued | accepted |
202 body — 5 fields.
| Field | In | Type | Always | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
enqueuedAt | body | string | — | EnqueuedAt is when the task was recorded, RFC 3339 — which is also when it completed. |
indexUid | body | string | — | IndexUID names the index the write landed in. |
status | body | string | — | Status is always enqueued, for dialect compatibility. |
taskUid | body | integer | — | TaskUID identifies the task for a client that polls it. |
type | body | string | — | Type is the dialect's name for the kind of write: indexCreation, indexDeletion, settingsUpdate, documentAdditionOrUpdate, documentDeletion. |
Failure carries the platform error shape — see Errors.
