Just call listcontentmodels. It lists all content models and gives you the necessary ZUIDs to reference in your scripts. This is a core step before any write operation.

Yes, the listzestyinstances tool lets you enumerate every instance associated with your account. This is crucial when scripting across multiple environments.

Model and Instance Discovery

Find the correct model structure using `list_content_models`. It spits out all available models, letting you grab those necessary ZUIDs for scripting. You can also check associated environments with `list_zesty_instances`.

Full Content CRUD Lifecycle

You can build content from scratch using `create_content_item`, which accepts a JSON payload. Need to modify existing data? Run `update_content_item`. Don't forget you can delete old records with the `delete_content_item` tool.

Data Inspection and Retrieval

Check out what content is already in the system by calling `list_content_items`. To get specific details on one piece, use `get_content_item`. If you're just verifying settings, `get_instance_settings` pulls that config for you.
