### [Read this on the main serverless docs site](https://www.serverless.com/framework/docs/providers/webtasks/cli-reference/create) # Auth0 Webtasks - Create Creates a new service in the current working directory based on the specified Auth0 Webtasks template. **Create service in current working directory:** ```bash serverless create --template webtasks-nodejs ``` **Create service in new folder:** ```bash serverless create --template webtasks-nodejs --path my-service ``` ## Options - `--template` or `-t` The name of one of the available templates. **Required if --template-url and --template-path are not present**. - `--template-url` or `-u` The name of one of the available templates. **Required if --template and --template-path are not present**. - `--template-path` The local path of your template. **Required if --template and --template-url are not present**. - `--path` or `-p` The path where the service should be created. - `--name` or `-n` the name of the service in `serverless.yml`. ## Available Templates To see a list of available templates run `serverless create --help` The only template available for use with the Auth0 Webtasks platform is: - webtasks-nodejs ## Examples ### Creating a new service ```bash serverless create --template webtasks-nodejs --name my-special-service ``` This example will generate scaffolding for a service with `webtasks` as a provider. The scaffolding will be generated in the current working directory. ### Creating a named service in a (new) directory ```bash serverless create --template webtasks-nodejs --path my-new-service ``` This example will generate scaffolding for a service with `webtasks` as a provider. The scaffolding will be generated in the `my-new-service` directory. This directory will be created if not present. Otherwise Serverless will use the already present directory. Additionally Serverless will rename the service according to the path you provide. In this example the service will be renamed to `my-new-service`. ### Creating a new service using a local template ```bash serverless create --template-path path/to/my/template/folder --path path/to/my/service --name my-new-service ``` This will copy the `path/to/my/template/folder` folder into `path/to/my/service` and rename the service to `my-new-service`.
