Creates multiple documents in the given storage, each item in the array becomes a document.

- flow `flow`

- array required `array ` Each item in this array becomes a document, make sure the item is an object.

- expiry `date` When a document is given an expiry date, the document will be unrecoverably deleted on the given date

- update priority `v13.0.6` `number` A document update can be important for search relevance or not, by poviding the system a priority you can help it understand what updates are high priority (1) and what updates can be delayed without huge impact for search relevance (3). 1 is highest priority, 2 is medium priority, 3 is low priority and 0 is wait-for-insert.

Default `1`

- storage required `storage` The storage these documents should be created in.

- flow `flow`

A typical wiring for [create multiple documents](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/storage/function_create_documents): a [function trigger](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/globals/trigger_custom_function) starts the flow; the `flow` out pin feeds [debug](https://docs.rual.nl/block-types/state%20ui/state_debug).
