# Job and Job Family Creation

The essential first step of any flow with the Skill Engine API is creating the
Entities within the system. First, a Job Family needs to be created. In order to
create a Job Family, send over the Job Family information to the
`/job_architecture/job_families` endpoint. Job Family information can contain a
non-required `job_family_group` field. This field can be used if your
organization has a hierarchical structure with Job Families grouped into higher
level groups. After this creation, you can add Jobs to this Job Family by
sending over the Job Information to the `/job_architecture/jobs` endpoint. The
Job is added to the Job Family by providing the Job Family ID in the body of the
request. If a Job would not fit any Job Family, it can be created without a Job
Family ID.

# Example

If the Job Family with ID 101 is created, the Job with ID 1 can be added to this
Job Family by sending the following request:

```json theme={null}
{
  "external_id": 1,
  "job_name": "Frontend Developer",
  "job_family_id": "101"
}
```
