Create epic allows you to create a new epic in shortcut.
This endpoint allows you to create a threaded comment on an epic.
This endpoint allows you to create a nested comment reply to an existing epic comment.
Creates a new group in the shortcut system with customizable properties. this endpoint allows you to set up a group with a unique mention name, display name, optional description, and various customization options. use this when you need to establish a new team, department, or any other collective within your shortcut workspace. the created group can include members, associated workflows, and visual customizations like color and icon. this endpoint is particularly useful for organizing your shortcut workspace structure, facilitating team collaboration, and streamlining workflow management. note that while member and workflow associations can be set during creation, they can also be modified later using separate endpoints.
The createiteration endpoint allows you to create a new iteration in shortcut, which represents a time-boxed period for completing a set of stories or tasks. this endpoint is crucial for teams using agile methodologies, enabling them to plan and track progress over specific time periods. use this endpoint when setting up sprint cycles, planning releases, or organizing work into manageable timeframes. the endpoint requires essential information such as the iteration's name and date range, while also offering options to add followers, associate groups, and attach labels for better organization and tracking. it's important to note that while multiple groups can be added via the api, the current web ui only displays one group association. this endpoint should not be used for modifying existing iterations; instead, use the dedicated update endpoint for such changes.
Create label allows you to create a new label in shortcut.
Create linked file allows you to create a new linked file in shortcut.
(deprecated: use 'create objective') create milestone allows you to create a new milestone in shortcut.
Create multiple stories allows you to create multiple stories in a single request using the same syntax as [create story](https://developer.shortcut.com/api/rest/v3#create-story).

Create story is used to add a new story to your shortcut workspace. this endpoint requires that either **workflow state id** or **project id** be provided, but will reject the request if both or neither are specified. the workflow state id has been marked as required and is the recommended field to specify because we are in the process of sunsetting projects in shortcut.
Create comment allows you to create a comment on any story.
Create story from template is used to add a new story derived from a template to your shortcut workspace.
Story links (called story relationships in the ui) allow you create semantic relationships between two stories. the parameters read like an active voice grammatical sentence: subject -> verb -> object. the subject story acts on the object story; the object story is the direct object of the sentence. the subject story "blocks", "duplicates", or "relates to" the object story. examples: - "story 5 blocks story 6” -- story 6 is now "blocked" until story 5 is moved to a done workflow state. - "story 2 duplicates story 1” -- story 2 represents the same body of work as story 1 (and should probably be archived). - "story 7 relates to story 3”
Create a reaction to a story comment.
Create task is used to create a new task in a story.
Delete category can be used to delete any category.
