Create an admin key

Creates an admin key, which may do everything, and records key.created. The answer carries the key string, once. Admin keys only.

Parameters

Name	In	Type	Description
`Idempotency-Key`	header	string 1–128 characters · pattern `^[!-~]{1,128}$`	A key of the client’s choosing, one per request it means to send once (a UUID will do). A repeat with the same key and the same body within 24 h creates nothing again and gets the first answer, marked `Idempotent-Replayed: true`. The key belongs to the API key that sent it. Only a `2xx` answer is kept: after any other answer the key is free again.

idstring · uuid
keystring | null

The key string to send as Authorization: Bearer. It is not stored and no other answer shows it: keep it now. null in a replay (Idempotent-Replayed: true) of a request sent again with the same Idempotency-Key: the key was created by the first request, whose answer carried its string; revoke it and create another with a new Idempotency-Key if that answer was lost.

Postwind’s storage did not answer within its time limit (storage_timeout). A change the request makes may still take effect: check before repeating it. A repeat with the same Idempotency-Key never runs it twice: it is 409 idempotency_key_in_progress until the key’s 24 h end
