# create Method - Data Model Repository Reference

The `create` method of a data model repository creates one or more records of the data model.

This reference assumes you've already resolved the data model repository, as explained in the [Data Model Repository Reference](https://docs.medusajs.com/resources/data-model-repository-reference) documentation.

## `create` Parameters

- data: (\`array\`) An array of objects to create. The shape of the objects is the same as the shape of the data model.

***

## Create Records

As of [Medusa v2.11.0](https://github.com/medusajs/medusa/releases/tag/v2.11.0), MikroORM dependencies are included in the `@medusajs/framework` package. If you're using an older version of Medusa, change the import statement to `@mikro-orm/knex`.

```ts
import { 
  InjectTransactionManager,
  MedusaContext,
  MedusaService,
  InjectManager,
} from "@medusajs/framework/utils"
import { Context, InferTypeOf, DAL } from "@medusajs/framework/types"
import { EntityManager } from "@medusajs/framework/mikro-orm/knex"
import Post from "./models/post"

class BlogModuleService extends MedusaService({
  Post,
}){
  // ...
  @InjectTransactionManager()
  protected async doSomething_(
    id: string,
    @MedusaContext() sharedContext?: Context<EntityManager>
  ): Promise<any> {
    const posts = await this.postRepository_.create([
      {
        title: "My Post",
        content: "This is a post",
        author_id: "01JSGRGQ8S61SR0Y7VCRV8FH66",
      },
    ])

    return posts
  }

  @InjectManager()
  async doSomething(
    id: string,
    @MedusaContext() sharedContext?: Context<EntityManager>
  ): Promise<any> {
    return await this.doSomething_(id, sharedContext)
  }
}
```

### Parameters

The `create` method accepts an array of objects, each representing a record to create. The shape of the objects is the same as the shape of the data model.

### Returns

The method returns an array of the created records.
