Add a “Create Item” request

Next, we want to add the ability to create a new item from our Budibase app. We want to be able to pass in the item title, to the create query. To do this, we’ll create a query with parameters:

1. Click on your GitHub datasource

2. Click “Add Query”

3. Enter the name “Create new item”

4. The function is “POST”

5. Add a parameter called “item_title”

6. Set the “Path” to /repos/<github_user>/<github-repo>/issues

7. Set the Body to { “title” : “{{ item_title }}” }. This will pass our item_title parameter into the “title” field, in the JSON body.

8. Test your query to make sure that an issue is created.
