Create an opportunity position

Opportunities module

POST/opportunity-positionsopportunityPositions.create

  • Requires the capability opportunities.posting.write.
  • OAuth scopes: opportunities.
  • Send an Idempotency-Key header. A replay with the same key returns the original response.
  • Error statuses: 400, 401, 409, 422, 429. Errors are RFC 9457 problem details.
