[[date|=dd.MM.yy]]
```

```text
[[date|=MMM d, h:mm a]]
```

Creates a new draft with the content passed in the “text” argument. If an x-success url is provided, it will be called with the `uuid` parameter indicating the UUID of the draft which was created.

### Method
`drafts://x-callback-url/create`

### Parameters
#### Query Parameters
- **text** (string) - Required - Text to be used at the content of the new draft.
- **tag** (string) - Optional - Name of a tag to attach to the draft. This parameter can appear multiple times to add more than one tag.
- **folder** (string) - Optional - Location for the new draft. Accepted values: `inbox`, `archive`. Default: `inbox`.
- **flagged** (boolean) - Optional - Should the newly created draft be flagged. Default: `false`.
- **action** (string) - Optional - Name of an action in the action list. If provided, this action will be run on the specified draft.
- **allowEmpty** (boolean) - Optional - If an `action` parameter is provided, adding `allowEmpty=false` to the URL will prevent that action from running if the text is empty. This can be used to terminate a loop of x-callback-urls running on lines of a draft.
- **retParam** (string) - Optional - The name of the argument to use to pass the draft UUID back to the x-success URL. Defaults to “uuid”, but if the requesting app expects another value (like Workflow’s “input”) use this argument to override.
