`POST /v2/issuers/{organizationId}/placements`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://rewards-api.getkard.com`
- URL: `https://rewards-api.getkard.com/v2/issuers/{organizationId}/placements`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Create a placement for the organization. Use type "placement" for standard placements (requires name and availableSlots), "placementPushNotification" for push-notification placements (requires name and cadence; availableSlots is automatically set to 1), "placementEmail" for email placements (requires name, cadence, and availableSlots), "placementBatchActivation" for batch-activation placements (requires name, refreshInterval, and slots), or "placementGroup" for group placements (requires name and slots).

## Path parameters

- `organizationId` string, required

## Request body

- OrganizationsPlacementsCreatePlacementRequestBody: Request body for creating a placement
  - `data` union, required: Discriminated union for creating a placement
    - object
      - `type` 'placement', required: Discriminator value: placement
      - `attributes` OrganizationsPlacementsCreateStandardAttributes, required: Attributes for creating a standard placement
        - `name` string, required: Name of the placement
        - `displayName` string: Cardholder-facing title for the section (minimum 1 character). Omit to let clients use their default label.

        - `name` string, required: Name of the placement
        - `status` 'ACTIVE' | 'INACTIVE': Whether a scheduled placement's deliveries are paused. INACTIVE removes the placement's delivery schedule (push/email); ACTIVE re-creates it. Status has no effect on content serving.
