# Create a deal record

`POST /v2/objects/deals/records`

Creates a new deal record. This endpoint will throw on conflicts of unique attributes, if defined. If you would prefer to update deal records on conflicts, please use the Assert deal record endpoint instead.

Required scopes: `record_permission:read-write`, `object_configuration:read`.

## Request body

- object
  - `data` object, required
    - `values` object, required — This object's keys should be the slugs or IDs of the attributes you wish to update. Below, you'll find documentation for the value types of each standard deal attribute. For information on potential custom attributes, refer to our [attribute type docs](/docs/attribute-types).
      - `name` object[]
        - `value` string, required — A raw text field. Values are limited to 10MB.
      - `stage` object[]
        - `status` string, required — The UUID or status title identifying the selected status.
      - `owner` union[]
        - union
          - object
            - `referenced_actor_type` 'workspace-member', required — The type of the referenced actor. Currently, only workspace members can be written into actor reference attributes. [Read more information on actor types here](/docs/actors).
            - `referenced_actor_id` string, uuid, required — The ID of the referenced Actor.
          - object
            - `workspace_member_email_address` string, required — Workspace member actors can be referenced by email address as well as actor ID.
      - `value` object[]
        - `currency_value` number, required — A numerical representation of the currency value. A decimal with a max of 4 decimal places.
      - `associated_people` union[]
        - union
          - object
            - `target_object` string, required — A UUID or slug to identify the object that the referenced record belongs to.
            - `target_record_id` string, uuid, required — A UUID to identify the referenced record.
          - object
            - `target_object` string, required — A UUID or slug to identify the object that the referenced record belongs to.
            - `[slug_or_id_of_matching_attribute]` union[], required — In addition to referencing records directly by record ID, you may also reference by a matching attribute of your choice. For example, if you want to add a reference to the person record with email "alice@website.com", you should pass a value with `target_object` set to `"people"` and `email_addresses` set to `[{email_address:"alice@website.com"}]`. The key should be the slug or ID of the matching attribute you would like to use and the value should be an array containing a single value of the appropriate attribute type (as specified below). Matching on multiple values is not currently supported. Matching attributes must be unique. This process is similar to how you use the `matching_attribute` query param in Attio's [assert endpoints](/rest-api/endpoint-reference/records/assert-a-record).
