Create a dataset

client.datasets.create(, ?): Dataset { id, created_at, created_by, 6 more }

POST/v5/datasets

Create a dataset and populate it with its initial items in a single call.

Use this when the dataset does not exist yet: it creates the dataset and seeds it with the items you provide. To add more items to a dataset that already exists, use POST /v5/dataset-items/batch instead. A name is required, and the request must include at least one item in data; the optional files field associates files with the created items. The provided items are inserted as dataset items as a side effect of creation, and any tags are attached to the dataset. The returned dataset is at version 1.
