- Include Calendar Event — Optionally include a calendar event attached to the record.
- All Day Event — If including a calendar event, specify whether it is an all-day event.

Output shape
a single JSON object per input item representing the API response of the created instance record; includes the created record's details and identifiers
The node returns the raw API response for each created record. Use the 'Entity → Get Structure' operation beforehand to discover field names and structure for building the form data JSON or for using the field builder mode. When including a calendar event, the event is automatically attached to the created record in a dedicated calendar group.

Example 2: Create a new record using raw JSON input
Select the target entity, choose 'Raw JSON' mode, provide the entire form_data array according to the entity's structure, optionally include a calendar event, and execute to create the instance.
