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.

This endpoint takes no organisation id. Your key already identifies the organisation it belongs to, and the response is scoped to it.

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/{boardId}/automations \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer zdk_live_…" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "name": <string>, "trigger": <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

Validated against the catalogue at save time, not at run time. A rule pairing a card action with a trigger that carries no card, naming a context field its trigger does not publish, or using an operator the field's type cannot take is refused here with the offending clause named — because the alternative is a rule that sits in the list looking enabled and does nothing for ever, whose only evidence is an absence.
