# Creating the Basket

Once a proposal has been submitted, anyone can create the first basket by calling `createBasket`. This function takes one input, idNumber. Each proposal has an idNumber, and Kuiper uses that idNumber to determine which index to create a basket for.

There is no incentive for creating the basket in the protocol, but anyone can perform this task.
