CreateRoomRequestDto

The parameters of a new room in the Rooms section.

NameTypeDescriptionNotes
titleStringThe name of the room. It is trimmed, characters that a folder name cannot hold are replaced with underscores and the rest is truncated, so the stored title can differ from the one sent; a blank title is rejected. Titles are not unique, and rooms are told apart by their id.[required] [example: Project Alpha] [minLength: 0] [maxLength: 170] [nullable]
quotaLong (int64)The storage the room may take, in bytes. It is accepted only while the per-room quota feature is on for the portal and must stay inside the portal own limit; leaving it out lets the room follow the portal default.[optional] [example: 1073741824] [nullable]
indexingBooleanWhether the room keeps a manual order of its contents. With it on every file and folder carries a position that listings follow and that PUT api/2.0/files/rooms/{id}/reorder compacts; with it off the contents are ordered by the sorting of the request.[optional] [example: true] [nullable]
denyDownloadBooleanWhether members without editing rights are stopped from downloading and printing the contents of the room. They can still open the documents in the editor.[optional] [example: false] [nullable]
lifetimeRoomDataLifetimeDtoHow long files may stay in the room before they are deleted automatically. The countdown starts when the setting is saved, and leaving the field out keeps the files forever.[optional]
watermarkWatermarkRequestDtoThe watermark drawn over documents opened in the room. Leaving the field out adds no watermark, and sending it with the switch turned off removes the one the room has.[optional]
logoLogoRequestThe picture to use as the room logo, named by the path that POST api/2.0/files/logos returned for an image uploaded beforehand, plus the crop to take from it. Leaving the field out keeps the room on its cover and colour.[optional]
tagsListThe labels to attach to the room, by name. Names the portal tag catalogue does not hold yet are added to it, and GET api/2.0/files/tags lists what already exists.[optional] [example: [Finance, 2026]] [nullable]
colorStringThe background colour the room is drawn with while it has no logo, as six hexadecimal digits with no leading number sign. An empty value restores the default colour of the room type.[optional] [example: FF5733] [pattern: /^[0-9a-fA-F]{6}$/] [nullable]
coverStringThe picture drawn on the room while it has no logo, named by an identifier from GET api/2.0/files/rooms/covers. Any other value is rejected, and an empty value leaves the room without a cover.[optional] [example: bookmark] [minLength: 0] [maxLength: 50] [nullable]
roomTypeRoomTypeWhat the room is for. It decides which sharing links, roles and form features the room offers, and it cannot be changed once the room exists, so a room of the wrong kind has to be recreated.[required] [enum: 1, 2, 5, 6, 8, 9]
privateBooleanWhether the room is end-to-end encrypted. Its files can then be opened only in the desktop application by members whose encryption keys are set up, and the flag cannot be changed after the room is created.[optional] [example: false]
shareListNot implemented on room creation: any non-empty value is rejected, and members are invited afterwards with PUT api/2.0/files/rooms/{id}/share.[optional] [example: []] [nullable]
chatSettingsChatSettingsThe model and the prompt an AI room answers with. It belongs to AI rooms only and is rejected for a room of any other kind.[optional]
sendFormToExternalDBBooleanFor a form filling room, whether the data of every completed submission is also pushed to the external database configured for the portal. It is what POST api/2.0/files/rooms/{id}/externaldbsync re-runs for the forms already collected.[optional] [example: false] [nullable]
saveFormAsXLSXBooleanFor a form filling room, whether the collected submissions are also gathered into a spreadsheet stored next to the completed forms. With it off the submissions are kept only as the filled documents themselves.[optional] [example: false] [nullable]
