+# Creating a Database via API
+
+Everything the **Create Database** wizard does (see [Common Steps](../../common-steps.md)) can
+also be done directly against the platform API — useful for scripting, CI/CD pipelines, or
+automating database provisioning without the UI.
+
+The flow is the same for every database engine: fetch the engine's default form values,
+render them into a full values model (dry-run), then submit to create the database. Only the
+`spec` fields you customize (mode, version, replicas, resources, storage) differ per engine.
+
+## Before You Start
+
+- **Base URL**: `https://<your-host>/api/v1/clusters/<org>/<cluster>`
+- **Auth**: every call needs your session cookie and CSRF token:
+  ```
+  -H "Cookie: <your-session-cookie>"
+  -H "x-csrf-token: <your-csrf-token>"
+  -H "content-type: application/json"
+  ```
+
+## The 3-Call Flow
+
+| # | Call | Purpose |
+|---|------|---------|
+| 1 | `GET /helm/packageview/values` | Get the default form values for the engine |
+| 2 | `PUT /helm/options/model` | Render your inputs into a full values model (dry-run) |
+| 3 | `PUT /helm/editor` | **Submit — this creates the database** |
+
+Call 1 returns the default config for the engine (all the fields the UI shows, with their
+defaults). Note the shape: `form`, `metadata`, and `spec` are **top-level siblings** — the
+editable database config lives under the top-level `spec`, not under `form`. Fields like the
+available versions and storage classes usually come back empty — set your preferred values
+before moving to call 2.
+
+Call 2 takes the `form` object from call 1 with your choices filled in (name, namespace,
+version, mode, replicas, resources, storage, etc.) and renders it into the full set of
+Kubernetes manifests that would be applied — without creating anything. The response's
+`resources` map (e.g. `resources.kubedbCom<Engine>`) is exactly what call 3 will apply, so
+this is the point to verify your configuration before submitting.
+
+Call 3 takes the same `form`/`metadata` plus the rendered `resources` map from call 2 and
+submits it via `?response-id=<uuid>` (any client-generated UUID, used only to correlate the
+request with a progress stream). A `200` response means the database — and its
+autoscaler/binding/backup config — has been created.

+
+> More engines will be documented here as their API flows are captured. Until then, follow
+> the pattern above against `GET /helm/packageview/values` with your engine's `kind` (e.g.
+> `Redis`, `MySQL`) to discover its fields.
