## Create `gpu_droplets.create(GPUDropletCreateParams**kwargs) -> GPUDropletCreateResponse` **post** `/v2/droplets` To create a new Droplet, send a POST request to `/v2/droplets` setting the required attributes. A Droplet will be created using the provided information. The response body will contain a JSON object with a key called `droplet`. The value will be an object containing the standard attributes for your new Droplet. The response code, 202 Accepted, does not indicate the success or failure of the operation, just that the request has been accepted for processing. The `actions` returned as part of the response's `links` object can be used to check the status of the Droplet create event. ### Create Multiple Droplets Creating multiple Droplets is very similar to creating a single Droplet. Instead of sending `name` as a string, send `names` as an array of strings. A Droplet will be created for each name you send using the associated information. Up to ten Droplets may be created this way at a time. Rather than returning a single Droplet, the response body will contain a JSON array with a key called `droplets`. This will be set to an array of JSON objects, each of which will contain the standard Droplet attributes. The response code, 202 Accepted, does not indicate the success or failure of any operation, just that the request has been accepted for processing. The array of `actions` returned as part of the response's `links` object can be used to check the status of each individual Droplet create event. ### Parameters - **image:** `Union[str, int]` The image ID of a public or private image or the slug identifier for a public image. This image will be the base image for your Droplet.
Requires `image:read` scope. - **DropletSingleCreateImageUnionMember0:** `str` - **DropletSingleCreateImageUnionMember1:** `int` - **name:** `str` The human-readable string you wish to use when displaying the Droplet name. The name, if set to a domain name managed in the DigitalOcean DNS management system, will configure a PTR record for the Droplet. The name set during creation will also determine the hostname for the Droplet in its internal configuration. - **size:** `str` The slug identifier for the size that you wish to select for this Droplet. - **backup\_policy:** `DropletBackupPolicyParam` An object specifying the backup policy for the Droplet. If omitted and `backups` is `true`, the backup plan will default to daily. - **backups:** `bool` A boolean indicating whether automated backups should be enabled for the Droplet. - **ipv6:** `bool` A boolean indicating whether to enable IPv6 on the Droplet. - **monitoring:** `bool` A boolean indicating whether to install the DigitalOcean agent for monitoring. - **private\_networking:** `bool` This parameter has been deprecated. Use `vpc_uuid` instead to specify a VPC network for the Droplet. If no `vpc_uuid` is provided, the Droplet will be placed in your account's default VPC for the region. - **region:** `str` The slug identifier for the region that you wish to deploy the Droplet in. If the specific datacenter is not not important, a slug prefix (e.g. `nyc`) can be used to deploy the Droplet in any of the that region's locations (`nyc1`, `nyc2`, or `nyc3`). If the region is omitted from the create request completely, the Droplet may deploy in any region. - **ssh\_keys:** `List[Union[str, int]]` An array containing the IDs or fingerprints of the SSH keys that you wish to embed in the Droplet's root account upon creation. You must add the keys to your team before they can be embedded on a Droplet.
Requires `ssh_key:read` scope. - **DropletSingleCreateSSHKeyUnionMember0:** `str` - **DropletSingleCreateSSHKeyUnionMember1:** `int` - **tags:** `Optional[List[str]]` A flat array of tag names as strings to apply to the Droplet after it is created. Tag names can either be existing or new tags.
Requires `tag:create` scope. - **user\_data:** `str` A string containing 'user data' which may be used to configure the Droplet on first boot, often a 'cloud-config' file or Bash script. It must be plain text and may not exceed 64 KiB in size. - **volumes:** `List[str]` An array of IDs for block storage volumes that will be attached to the Droplet once created. The volumes must not already be attached to an existing Droplet.
Requires `block_storage:read` scpoe. - **vpc\_uuid:** `str` A string specifying the UUID of the VPC to which the Droplet will be assigned. If excluded, the Droplet will be assigned to your account's default VPC for the region.
Requires `vpc:read` scope. - **with\_droplet\_agent:** `bool` A boolean indicating whether to install the DigitalOcean agent used for providing access to the Droplet web console in the control panel. By default, the agent is installed on new Droplets but installation errors (i.e. OS not supported) are ignored. To prevent it from being installed, set to `false`. To make installation errors fatal, explicitly set it to `true`. ### Returns - **GPUDropletCreateResponse:** `GPUDropletCreateResponse` - `class SingleDropletResponse` - **droplet:** `Droplet` - **links:** `SingleDropletResponseLinks` - **actions:** `Optional[List[ActionLink]]` - **id:** `Optional[int]` A unique numeric ID that can be used to identify and reference an action. - **href:** `Optional[str]` A URL that can be used to access the action. - **rel:** `Optional[str]` A string specifying the type of the related action. - `class MultipleDropletResponse` - **droplets:** `List[Droplet]` - **id:** `int` A unique identifier for each Droplet instance. This is automatically generated upon Droplet creation. - **backup\_ids:** `List[int]` An array of backup IDs of any backups that have been taken of the Droplet instance. Droplet backups are enabled at the time of the instance creation.
