createRecord(recordInput)

Creates a record.

createRecord uses this User Interface API resource.

Parameter Name	Type	Description	Required?
recordInput	Object	A RecordInput object used to create the record.

recordInput takes two properties.

Property Name	Type	Description	Required?
apiName	String	The API name of a supported object.
fields	Object	Map of field names to field values.

A Promise object that resolves with the created record. The record contains data for the fields in the record layout.

Before you use this wire adapter, make sure that there isn’t an easier way to create the data. Consider using the lightning-record-*-form components to work with records. To update a record, use updateRecord instead.

Use createRecord by passing in the record input. To create a RecordInput object, use generateRecordInputForCreate(record,objectInfo). Alternatively, pass in a recordInput object with the apiName and fields properties.
