• Security: Typically authenticated using your Public Key.

2. POST (Create & Sub-Client Management)

The POST method is used to send or create new data on the server.

• Data Transmission: Data is sent within the Request Body as a JSON object.
• Security: Requires your Secret Key for administrative endpoints.
