# create_document

> Create a draft Montra document in the connected workspace.

Creates a new draft document in the workspace this connection is bound to, with the title you pass and nothing else. Add work to it with [`create_ticket`](/tools/create-ticket), and fill in a summary later with [`update_document`](/tools/update-document).

## Input

<ParamField body="title" type="string" required>
  Title for the new Montra document. Surrounding whitespace is trimmed; 1 to 200 characters after trimming.
</ParamField>

## Output

<ResponseField name="document" type="object" required>
  <Expandable title="properties">
    <ResponseField name="id" type="string" required>Id of the new document. Pass this to [`create_ticket`](/tools/create-ticket) or [`get_document`](/tools/get-document).</ResponseField>
    <ResponseField name="title" type="string" required>Document title.</ResponseField>
    <ResponseField name="summary" type="string" required>Short summary of the document. Empty on a new document.</ResponseField>
    <ResponseField name="status" type="string" required>Document status.</ResponseField>
    <ResponseField name="folderId" type="string" required>Id of the folder holding this document. `null` when the document is not in a folder.</ResponseField>
    <ResponseField name="workspaceId" type="string" required>Id of the workspace the document belongs to.</ResponseField>
    <ResponseField name="updatedAt" type="string" required>When the document was last updated.</ResponseField>
  </Expandable>
</ResponseField>

## Notes

* The document is created in the bound workspace; there is no way to create one elsewhere through the connector.
* It appears in the Montra app immediately, so use a title a person will recognize.
