# Set Token Creator

The Set Token Creator is a smart contract used to deploy new [SetToken](/index-coop-community-handbook/protocol/index-protocol/core-contracts/set-token.md) contracts. The SetTokenCreator is a Factory contract that is enabled by the [Controller](/index-coop-community-handbook/protocol/index-protocol/core-contracts/controller.md) to create and register new SetTokens.

## Select Methods

### create()

`function create(address[] memory _components, int256[] memory _units, address[] memory _modules, address _manager, string memory _name, string memory _symbol) external returns (address)`

Creates a SetToken smart contract and registers the SetToken with the controller. The SetTokens are composed of positions that are instantiated as DEFAULT (positionState = 0) state.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.indexcoop.com/index-coop-community-handbook/protocol/index-protocol/core-contracts/set-token-creator.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
