# act: board
the board with its tiles to the board, ready, or not ready with the tile that could not be drawn
[figure: The caller sends BoardInput to /v1/act/board. The platform returns a card whose body is Board.]
POST/v1/act/board
Write a board. The call needs the tenant rung under a token with the act grant, and it is served by the platform.
The route takes [BoardInput](/concepts/boardinput) and returns a card whose body is [Board](/concepts/board).
## Request body
The request body is [BoardInput](/concepts/boardinput).
| field | type | required | note |
|---|---|---|---|
| `name` | `text` | yes | |
| `audience` | `text` | yes | |
| `tiles` | [Tile](/concepts/tile) | yes | |
| `period` | [Window](/concepts/window) | yes | |
## Response
The route returns a card whose body is [Board](/concepts/board). Every card ends with a foot that states the basis of each number, the scope of the call, and the time when the facts were true.
## Headers
| header | required | meaning |
|---|---|---|
| `Scale-Scope` | yes | the scope the call runs in: tenant/, then /brand/, then /strategy/ |
| `Scale-As-True-On` | no | the date the facts must have been true on; defaults to now |
| `Scale-As-Known-On` | no | the date the facts must have been known on; defaults to now |
| `Scale-Key` | no | for a change, the key made from the input; a repeat under the same key returns the unit held and writes nothing |
A caller needs the tenant rung and a token with the act grant. The platform serves this route.
## Example
The example sends the smallest body that BoardInput allows. The build validates it against the schema of BoardInput.
Example
```sh
curl -X POST https://api.scaleintelligence.co/v1/act/board \
-H "Scale-Key: $SCALE_KEY" -H "Scale-Scope: tenant/" \
-H "content-type: application/json" \
-d '{ "name": "…", "audience": "…", "tiles": [], "period": { "from": "…", "to": "…" } }'
```
```typescript
import { client } from "@scale/sdk";
const answer = await client.act.board({
"name": "…",
"audience": "…",
"tiles": [],
"period": {
"from": "…",
"to": "…"
}
});
// answer.body is a Board. answer.foot holds the basis, the scope and the time.
```
```python
import requests
answer = requests.post("https://api.scaleintelligence.co/v1/act/board",
headers={"Scale-Key": KEY, "Scale-Scope": "tenant/"},
json={
"name": "…",
"audience": "…",
"tiles": [],
"period": {
"from": "…",
"to": "…"
}
}).json()
```
```rust
let answer: Card = client.post("https://api.scaleintelligence.co/v1/act/board")
.header("Scale-Key", key).header("Scale-Scope", "tenant/")
.json(&BoardInput { /* the fields of the page */ }).send().await?.json().await?;
