# Create an Errors project and receive its ingest address once

`POST /errors/projects`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://realuptime.io/api/v1`
- URL: `https://realuptime.io/api/v1/errors/projects`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Creates a project under the same plan allowance the dashboard enforces and mints its ingest key. The 201 response carries `dsn` (the native ingest address) and `sentryDsn` (the same key as a Sentry-shaped DSN) and is the only time either is returned: the plaintext key is not stored, so a later `GET /errors/projects` shows only `keyHint`. Both addresses are safe to put in a browser bundle; they can only submit events to this one project. Project names are labels, not identifiers, so list the projects before retrying a request whose response was lost.

## Request body

- object
  - `name` string, required

## Response `201`

The created project and its ingest addresses, shown once.

- object
  - `project` object, required
    - `id` string, required
    - `name` string, required
    - `keyHint` string, required
    - `revoked` boolean, required
    - `createdAt` string, required
    - `eventCeilingPerMinute` number, nullable, required
  - `dsn` string, required
  - `sentryDsn` string, required
