# Create Measurement

`POST /api/v1/measurements`

## Request body

- CreateMeasurementForRevisionRequest — HTTP create payload. The field is required; null supports revisionless fixtures.
  - `condition_id` string, uuid, required
  - `page_id` string, uuid, required
  - `geometry` union, required
    - PointGeometryInput
      - `type` 'point', required
      - `x` union, required
        - number
        - string
      - `y` union, required
        - number
        - string
      - `rotation` union
        - number
        - string
    - PolylineGeometryInput
      - `type` 'polyline', required
      - `points` array[], required
        - unknown[]
          - unknown
      - `bulges` union[], nullable
        - union
          - number
          - string
    - PolygonGeometryInput
      - `type` 'polygon', required
      - `points` array[], required
        - unknown[]
          - unknown
      - `holes` array[], nullable
        - array[]
          - unknown[]
            - unknown
      - `grid` GridAlignmentInput — Rebar-grid pose for an area measurement (spec 2026-07-13 §5.2). Stored inside geometry JSONB — additive, no DDL (ADR-0097 precedent). angle_deg is CCW-positive PDF user-space, normalized to [0, 180): a line family has 180° symmetry, unlike marker glyphs' [0, 360). New normalizer — borrows only the round-then-normalize technique from ADR-0097.
        - `origin` unknown[], required
          - unknown
        - `angle_deg` union
          - number
          - string
  - `name` string, nullable
  - `bid_area_id` string, uuid, nullable
  - `revision_set_id` string, uuid, nullable, required
