# Create creative rounds

`POST /api/v1/alpha/creative-rounds/create`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://point11.ai`
- URL: `https://point11.ai/api/v1/alpha/creative-rounds/create`
- Auth: OAuth 2 (authorization code, authorization URL `https://auth.point11.ai/oauth2/authorize`, token URL `https://auth.point11.ai/oauth2/token`)

Start a round on a project: five alternatives or an instructed edit of a selected version through Alpha's metered turn, under the Studio pricing; or an exact media edit (crop, orientation, color, trim, speed, volume, fades) of one saved image, video or audio file, rendered with no model turn and free. The member sends only their own words and choices. A refusal is recorded on the round, which never blocks a new request; resend only roundId to resume a request whose answer was lost.

## Other responses

- `400`: The input, query, or Idempotency-Key is invalid.
- `401`: The bearer is missing, expired, or not accepted.
- `402`: Billing refused the write: the code names the reason and `details.reason` carries it.
- `403`: The credential lacks the operation's scope or role, or the operation needs a different door.
- `404`: The resource or organization does not exist for this caller.
- `405`: This path takes another HTTP method, named in `Allow`.
- `409`: The request conflicts with current state or with prior use of its Idempotency-Key.
- `413`: The request, or the answer it asks for, is too large; narrow it.
- `429`: The credential's rate budget is spent; retry after `Retry-After` seconds.
- `500`: An unexpected server failure; retry later. Only `request_id` identifies it.
- `503`: A dependency is temporarily unavailable; retry after `Retry-After` seconds.
- `default`: Another status a product answers for its own refusal (for example `415` for an unsupported attachment); branch on `code`.
