It extends the hub’s record call [`Page.create`](https://startupbuilder.dev/business/nouns/page/create), which every [page](https://startupbuilder.dev/business/nouns/page) takes. It is one of the [Verbs](https://startupbuilder.dev/business/nouns/verb) of [Sites and content](/code/apps/sites-and-content#verbs).

## Inputs
| Name | Type | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `path` | `string` | Required. The path under its Site, such as `/pricing`. |
| `kind` | `string` | The page type, such as `landing`, `pricing`, or `terms`. Optional. |
| `from` | `string` | Lineage: the slot it compiles from, as `Hypothesis#<slot>@v<version>`. Optional. |
| `site` | `Site` | A Site serves its pages, each at its own path. Optional. |
| `template` | `Template` | A Template fills one page per Thing or per member of a Collection. Optional. |

The hub inherits this call on every Noun: it takes the page’s own Properties, listed on [the hub’s page page](https://startupbuilder.dev/business/nouns/page).

## Outputs
| Field | Type | What `null` means |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `page` | `Page` | Never null: the page as the call leaves it. |

## Effects
**Action class**

None: no approval rule names it, so it runs within its seat’s Permissions and Limits

**Modes**

- `try`: Runs every check and returns the record as it would be; nothing is stored.
- `send`: Returns a pending Action at once; `Page.created` fires when it is done.
- `do`: Waits for the Action to finish and returns the record.

**Idempotency**

Only with a key: the same `Idempotency-Key` and input return the first Action, and the same key with other input returns `409`.

**Saved or shared**

The page is saved as the call leaves it, with the Action that changed it.

**Emits**

`Page.created` with `{ page }`

**Performed by**

Whichever seat calls it

**Price**

Free on your own account: the platform charges nothing for the call.

## On each Venue
It acts on your own records and reaches no Venue, so every account answers the same way.

## What try does
Runs every check the call meets and returns the record as it would be; nothing is stored, sent or posted.

## Refuses when
The hub sets no guard of its own on this call: it refuses only on the shared checks every write meets (a missing record, a Permission the seat lacks).

## When it waits
Returns in one response; nothing waits.

## Example
In `send` mode the call returns its pending Action at once, and `Page.created` delivers the result.

**Ask**

```text
Add a page at /rent-ledger-template.
```

**API**

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.sb/leaseline.app/pages?mode=send" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SB_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
  "path": "/rent-ledger-template",
  "kind": "landing"
}'
```

**CLI**

```bash
npx startup-builder do Page.create --send --data '{
  "path": "/rent-ledger-template",
  "kind": "landing"
}'
```

`--send` returns the pending Action at once.

**MCP**

```json
{
  "name": "do",
  "arguments": {
    "mode": "send",
    "code": "return await $.Page.create({ path: '/rent-ledger-template', kind: 'landing' })"
  }
}
```

**SDK**

```ts
import { $ } from 'startup-builder'

const result = await $.send.Page.create({
  path: '/rent-ledger-template',
  kind: 'landing',
})
```


```json title="Response, in send mode"
{
  "mode": "send",
  "action": {
    "$id": "https://api.sb/leaseline.app/actions/action_Sd3kQ9vT2w",
    "operation": "Page.create",
    "status": "pending",
    "reason": "running"
  }
}
```

To retry, send the same `Idempotency-Key`: the retry returns the first answer for $0. A new key reads again.
