Category — Create (GraphQL)

Creates a new category and returns its detail. On create, the translatable values (slug, name, description, optional metaTitle / metaDescription / metaKeywords) are supplied at the top level and broadcast to the configured locales — this differs from update, which takes those values nested under a locale key. Required: slug, name, position, attributes (filterable attribute ids); description is required when displayMode is description_only or products_and_description. Logo/banner image upload is not available — set them in the admin panel.

TIP

See the Categories overview for how the menu works.

The create mutation payload resolves the category's scalar fields. The category's translations and filterableAttributeIds are not returned here — re-query adminCategory for the full detail.

All admin operations require an admin Bearer token — see Authentication.
