Step 6: Create a population

POST {{apiPath}}/environments/{{envID}}/populations

This example shows the POST /environments/{{envID}}/populations operation to create a new population.

In this request:

  • {{envID}} represents your environment ID.

  • The request body requires the name property. The description property is optional.

  • The request returns a Status: 201 created message, and shows the new population's configuration data.

  • The response data includes the population's id property. This is needed to create the new user in a subsequent step.
