This is the starting point for using Chowder. Create an organization and you’ll receive an org-level API key (chd_org_*) that grants full access to everything under that org. No authentication is required for this endpoint — it’s how you get your first key.

​
Request Body

​
name
string
required
The name for your organization. Must be between 1 and 128 characters.

​
Response

Returns 201 Created with the new organization and your API key.
The api_key value is shown only once in this response. Store it somewhere safe — you won’t be able to retrieve it again.
​
organization
object
The created organization.
​
api_key
string
Your org-level API key, prefixed with chd_org_. Use this as a Bearer token for all subsequent requests.
