# Create a space

POST https://api.cloudraker.com/space-types/{spaceTypeId}/spaces
Content-Type: application/json

Creates a space under the space type named in the path. Authorization: requires `spacetype:contribute` on the parent space type; organization administrators bypass this check. A caller lacking the grant gets 403. Body: `title` (1–120 chars); the space id is a server-generated uuid. Returns 201 `{ space }`; 404 if the parent space type does not exist.

Reference: https://docs.cloudraker.com/api/cloud-raker-api/workspace/workspace-spaces/create-space

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required)

## Request

### Path parameters

- `spaceTypeId` (string, required)

### Body (application/json)

- `title` (string, required)

## Response

### 201

The created space.

- `space` (object, required)
  - `id` (string, required)
  - `title` (string, required)
  - `spaceType` (string, required) — Identifier of the parent space type.
  - `createdAt` (datetime, required)
  - `updatedAt` (datetime, required)
  - `expiresAt` (datetime, required, nullable) — Deadline of an API-managed (`/v1`) space, after which it is closed and its files deleted. `null` for a space created in the app, which never expires.
  - `createdBy` (string, optional)
