# Create a row

`POST /api/workspaces/{slug}/rows`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://trydock.ai`
- URL: `https://trydock.ai/api/workspaces/{slug}/rows`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Add a new row to a table surface. `data` keys must match column ids on the surface; values are coerced to the column type. Multi-surface workspaces accept `surface` (slug) or `surfaceId` to pick which sheet the row lands on; omit both to fall through to the workspace's primary table surface.

## Path parameters

- `slug` string, required

- object
  - `data` object, required
  - `position` integer
  - `auto_create_columns` boolean
