# Create an administrator

`POST https://api.cademi.com.br/api/v3/administrators`

Operation ID: `administrators.create` · API v3

Creates an administrator in the current account.

By default, the new administrator receives an access email. Set `send_credentials` to `false` to skip it.

You can assign granular permissions and product access in the same request with `permissions` and `product_ids`, which also requires the `administrators.manage_permissions` permission. When either field is supplied, the administrator receives only the permissions listed in `permissions` instead of the role's default permissions. If any part of the request is rejected, no administrator is created.

The API cannot create administrators with the `root` or `master_admin` role, and creating an administrator with the `admin` role requires the `administrators.manage_permissions` permission. Every permission granted in `permissions` must be part of the selected role's default permissions. Requests that exceed these limits return `delegation_limit_exceeded`.

Required permissions: `administrators.create`.
