While Mem It is recommended for most use cases, you may occasionally need precise control over your notes and collections. For these scenarios, we expose explicit endpoints for managing individual resources.

​
Example: Creating a Collection and a Note

curl "https://api.mem.ai/v2/collections" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $MEM_API_KEY" \
    -d '{
        "id": "90815ddd-4c9b-49e3-b119-897ca04367f1",
        "name": "Project Ideas",
        "description": "A collection of project ideas"
    }'
curl "https://api.mem.ai/v2/notes" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $MEM_API_KEY" \
    -d '{
        "content": "# Great Idea\n\nBuild a mobile app that helps track daily water intake.",
        "collection_ids": ["90815ddd-4c9b-49e3-b119-897ca04367f1"]
    }'
