# Content types client

The content model in Content Hub ONE is defined by one or more content types. The following methods are available for content types.

| Method | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `GET /api/content/v1/types` | Retrieves prefix, label, and visualization properties of all content type entities. |
| `POST /api/content/v1/types` | Creates a content type entity. |
| `GET /api/content/v1/types/<CONTENT_TYPE_ID>` | Retrieves prefix, label, and visualization properties of a specific content type entity. |
| `PUT /api/content/v1/types/<CONTENT_TYPE_ID>` | Updates a content type entity. |
| `DELETE /api/content/v1/types/<CONTENT_TYPE_ID>` | Deletes a content type entity, as well as all linked member groups and their members. |

The following example illustrates these methods:

:::tab{title=".NET"}

```shell
public interface IContentTypeClient
{
  // POST /api/content/v1/types
  Task<ContentType> CreateAsync(
    ContentType contentType,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);

  // PUT /api/content/v1/types/<CONTENT_TYPE_ID>
  Task<ContentType> UpdateAsync(
    ContentType request,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);

  // DELETE /api/content/v1/types/<CONTENT_TYPE_ID>
  Task DeleteAsync(
    string contentTypeId,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);

  // GET /api/content/v1/types
  Task<PagedResponse<ContentType>> GetAsync(
    ContentTypeSearchRequest? searchRequest = null,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);

  // Same as GetAsync, but processing the results as an enumerator.
  IAsyncEnumerable<ContentType> EnumerateAsync(
    ContentTypeSearchRequest? searchRequest = null,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);

  // GET /api/content/v1/types/<contentTypeId>
  Task<ContentType?> SingleAsync(
    string contentTypeId,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);

  // GET /api/content/v1/types/<CONTENT_TYPE_ID>
  // Same as SingleAsync above, but with client-side caching.
  Task<ContentType?> SingleCachedAsync(
    string contentTypeId,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);
}
```
