22## API Resources
23 
24### forms
25 
26  - `batchUpdate` — Change the form with a batch of updates.
27  - `create` — Create a new form using the title given in the provided form message in the request. *Important:* Only the form.info.title and form.info.document_title fields are copied to the new form. All other fields including the form description, items and settings are disallowed. To create a new form and add items, you must first call forms.create to create an empty form with a title and (optional) document title, and then call forms.update to add the items.
28  - `get` — Get a form.
29  - `setPublishSettings` — Updates the publish settings of a form. Legacy forms aren't supported because they don't have the `publish_settings` field.
30  - `responses` — Operations on the 'responses' resource
31  - `watches` — Operations on the 'watches' resource

33## Discovering Commands
34 
35Before calling any API method, inspect it:
36 
37```bash
38# Browse resources and methods
39gws forms --help
40 
41# Inspect a method's required params, types, and defaults
42gws schema forms.<resource>.<method>
43```
44 
45Use `gws schema` output to build your `--params` and `--json` flags.
