Example: Response on successful catalog creation (HTTP 201)
Note: Catalog creation is an asynchronous process. Until the catalog is downloaded and all required
assets are created, the returned ID values and catalog attributes are 0 or Null as appropriate. Users
must determine the catalog ID by enumerating all catalogs and mapping to the one with the “Name”
field used while creating the catalog.
