--- title: "Batch create AaSequence" method: POST path: "/api/v3/aa-sequence:batch-create" tags: ["AA Sequence"] --- # Batch create AaSequence `POST /api/v3/aa-sequence:batch-create` ## Request - Base URL: `https://{tenant_name}.benchling.com` - URL: `https://{tenant_name}.benchling.com/api/v3/aa-sequence:batch-create` - Auth: HTTP bearer Batch create AaSequence synchronously in one transaction. Maximum 25 items per request. ## Request body - object - `items` CreateAaSequenceInput[], required - `aliases` string[]: Array of aliases - `aminoAcids` string, required: Amino acids of the AA sequence. Letters A-Z only (case-insensitive). Invalid characters are rejected. There is a per-tenant limit on sequence length (50,000 characters by default). - `annotations` AaAnnotationInput[]: Optional annotations to create on the new sequence. Each entry defines a region with 0-based `start` (inclusive) and `end` (exclusive) indices. - `color` string: Hex color when displaying the annotation. A random color is assigned if omitted. - `end` integer, required: 0-based exclusive end index. For an annotation at the end of the sequence, set `end` to the sequence length (recommended) or `0`; both are accepted on input and stored equivalently. In API responses, `end` is returned as the sequence length, not `0`. - `name` string, required: Name of the annotation. - `notes` string: Text notes on the annotation. Defaults to an empty string if omitted. - `start` integer, required: 0-based inclusive start index. - `type` string: Feature type of the annotation. - `authorIds` string[] - `customFields` object: Custom fields set on the AA sequence. - `entityRegistryId` string: Registry ID to assign to the entity. If one is specified, the labeling_strategy must be unspecified. - `folderId` string, required - `name` string, required: Name of the item. - `namingStrategy` 'NEW_IDS' | 'IDS_FROM_NAMES' | 'DELETE_NAMES' | 'SET_FROM_NAME_PARTS' | 'REPLACE_NAMES_FROM_PARTS' | 'KEEP_NAMES' | 'REPLACE_ID_AND_NAME_FROM_PARTS': Strategy to use for labeling the item in the registry. If one is specified, the entity_registry_id must be unspecified. - `registryId` string, nullable: A not null value means the entity should be registered. If not null, the value must match the registry of the item's schema. - `schemaFields` object - `schemaId` string ## Response `201` Created - AaSequenceBatchcreateResponse201 - `items` AaSequence[], required - `__typename` string - `aliases` string[], nullable: Array of aliases - `aminoAcids` string: Amino acids of the AA sequence. - `annotations` string, uri: Annotations marking functional regions, domains, binding sites, post-translational modifications, or other features on the AA sequence. - `archiveReason` string, nullable - `archived` boolean - `createdAt` string, datetime, nullable: DateTime the AA sequence was created. - `customFields` CustomField[], nullable: Custom fields set on the AA sequence. - `__typename` string - `name` string, nullable - `value` string, nullable - `entityRegistryId` string, nullable: The registry-assigned identifier for this item (e.g. its registry ID shown in the UI), present only once the item has been registered. Null if the item is not registered. - `folder` FolderRef - `__typename` string - `id` string, api_id - `id` string: ID of the AA sequence. - `modifiedAt` string, datetime, nullable: DateTime the AA sequence was last modified. - `name` string: Name of the item. - `project` ProjectRef - `__typename` string - `id` string, api_id - `registrationOrigin` RegistrationOrigin: Captures the provenance of an entity's registration into the registry. The `originEntry` links to the `DocumentLike` (typically an entry or notebook) from which the entity was registered, providing traceability back to the original experimental context. The `registeredAt` timestamp records when the registration occurred. This information helps scientists understand where registered entities came from and when they were added to the registry. - `__typename` string - `originEntry` DocumentLikeRef - `__typename` string - `id` string, api_id - `registeredAt` string, datetime, nullable - `registry` RegistryRef - `__typename` string - `id` string, api_id - `schema` EntitySchemaRef - `__typename` string - `id` string, api_id - `typedSchema` AaSequenceSchemaRef - `__typename` string - `id` string, api_id - `authors` string, uri, nullable - `creator` PrincipalRef - `__typename` string - `id` string, api_id - `schemaFields` SchemaFieldValue[], nullable - `__typename` string - `fieldDefinition` SchemaFieldDefinitionRef - `__typename` string - `id` string, api_id - `id` string - `linkedEntityId` string, nullable - `value` union: Types of values that Benchling can interpret. - object: A type that represents a list of BenchlingValues, used for multi-value cells (e.g. alias columns). - `__typename` 'ArrayValue', required: Discriminator value: ArrayValue - `value` SingularBenchlingValue[] - union: A union of value types that can appear as elements within an ArrayValue.
