Authentication

Send an API key as a bearer token. The endpoint checks agency.board.manage; a key without it is refused with 403, not 404.

Where your organisation id goes

This endpoint takes org_id as a field in the JSON body.

Your organisation id is on the API keys screen in your dashboard, beside the key itself. It is the same id in every call you make.

Try it

Replace anything in angle brackets with your own values, and the key placeholder with a key from your dashboard.

curl -X POST https://api.zinndigital.com/v1/agency/boards \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer zdk_live_…" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "name": <string> }'

Signed in? The API console in your dashboard fills in your real organisation id and your own key, and runs the request against the live API so you can see the actual response. Open this endpoint in the API console

Details

Creates the board and a working default pipeline — Requests · Backlog · In progress · Review · Done — with Requests marked as the client intake column and Requests, In progress and Done already client-visible. ⛔ Not a placeholder (§2.41): the board is usable by an agency and by its client the moment it exists, rather than after a configuration step nobody documents. Requires the agency_project_board entitlement on the acting org.

client_org_namestringNoThat client organisation's name, resolved by the engine. client_org_id set with this null is a real state and not an error — the board names a client the caller may not read —…
