This endpoint is used to create a boundary in the system.

The input is a GeoJSON feature:

  • "type": "Feature"
  • "id" (optional, string/number)
    The value used by the source to identify the boundary. If provided, it can be used as a filter.
  • "geometry"
    The GeoJSON geometry data. Endpoint supports two geometry types: Polygon and MultiPolygon.
  • "properties"
    • "varda:source_name" (mandatory)
      Value must be one of the source_name you are assigned by Varda.
    • "varda:permissions" (optional)
      "{tenant_id}":"{permission_value}" string pairs encoded in a JSON object to define boundary permissions for other tenants:
      • tenant_id: tenant ID to which the specific permission will be granted. Reserved keyword "all" meaning all tenants;
      • permission_value: one of the following:
        • discover: the specified tenant can discover the boundary in search results but no geometry information will be returned
        • view: same as discover plus geometry will be returned
        • manage: same as view plus the varda:permissions object will be returned in endpoint responses (where available) and permissions editing will be enabled

      Default value: {"{tenant_id}": "manage", "all": "view"}. Boundary will belong to the "public registry" with the tenant that ingested the boundary as a manager. Geometry data will be available to all tenants. By default manage role will be assigned to the caller tenant.

    • "{custom-property}" (optional)
      User-defined properties can be recorded, representing any metadata the client wishes to associate with the boundary. Only number, string, boolean, null are supported.

The output is a GeoJSON Feature.

Query parameter "dry_run" (optional, default=false) allows to simulate request outcome without applying changes to the data. Responses when dry_run=true are HTTP204 on success or error (including details) on failure

Note: GeoJSON numeric precision will be limited to 15 decimal places.
