Create a weather reading
Workforce module
POST/weather-readingsweatherReadings.create
A weather reading on site, in the hazard's unit. Creates a weather reading. Requires `Idempotency-Key`; a replay returns the original response. The organization is derived from the credential or the parent row, never from the body.
- Requires the capability safety.incident.write.
- OAuth scopes: safety.
- 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.
