# Creating a GoMarkdown Paste
Create a markdown paste on [gomarkdown.online](https://gomarkdown.online) and return the shareable URL.
## How to create a paste
Send a POST request to the GoMarkdown API:
```bash
curl -s https://gomarkdown.online/api/paste \
--request POST \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{"markdown": "<MARKDOWN_CONTENT>"}'
```
The response is JSON:
```json
{
"id": "abc1234567",
"url": "/paste/abc1234567"
}
```
The shareable URL is `https://gomarkdown.online` + the `url` field from the response.
**Example:** If the response `url` is `/paste/abc1234567`, the full URL is `https://gomarkdown.online/paste/abc1234567`.
## Important details
- Maximum paste size: 500KB
- No authentication required
- The `markdown` field in the request body is required and must be a string
- Supports all standard markdown features plus Mermaid diagrams
- Escape JSON special characters in the markdown content (newlines as `\n`, quotes as `\"`, backslashes as `\\`)
- On success the API returns HTTP 201
- On invalid content the API returns HTTP 400 with an error message
## After creating the paste
Always return the full shareable URL to the user: `https://gomarkdown.online/paste/<id>`
