# Creating a new project

**Step1: Prepare Your Request**

* **Endpoint:** `/project/create-project`
* **Method:** `POST`
* **URL:** `https://api.talkstackai.com/project/create-project`
* **Headers:** Include `Content-Type: application/json`.
* **Authorization:** Bearer token or x-api-key in Headers

**Step2: Create the Request Body**

* `name`: Name of the project.
* `description`: Description of the project.

```
{
    "name": "Demo Project",
    "description": "This is a demo project."
}
```

**Step 3: Send the Request**

Use your preferred HTTP client to send the POST request with the JSON body.

**Step 4: Handle the response**

The response will provide detailed information about the new project created.

**Success Response:**

* **Status Code:** `200 OK`
* **Body:**

```json
{
    "message": "successfully created project.",
    "status": "success",
    "data": {
        "name": "John Smith Clinic",
        "user_id": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
        "status": "ACTIVE",
        "description": "",
        "call_status_webhook": null,
        "id": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
        "active_agent": null,
        "created_at": null,
        "updated_at": null
    }
}
```

**Troubleshooting**

* `400 Bad Request`: If the `name`, or `description` is not there or if the project with same name already exists.
* `401 Unauthorized`: If the user is unauthorized or the token is missing.
* `500 Internal Server Error`: For errors in creating a new project.
