Create an administrator
/administratorsCreates 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 permissions is supplied, the administrator receives only the permissions listed there instead of the role's default permissions; product_ids alone keeps 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.
Autonomous mode: the API credential secret, sent as a bearer token. Credential secrets are identified by a fixed prefix.

Header Parameters
Client-generated key that makes the request safe to retry. Must be 1 to 128 characters from [A-Za-z0-9._:-]. Required by this operation: a missing key returns idempotency_key_required, and a malformed key returns idempotency_key_invalid. Repeating the request with the same key and the same body returns the stored result with Idempotent-Replayed: true.
Optional client-generated identifier of the request, up to 64 characters from [A-Za-z0-9._-]. Echoed back in the response and recorded in the request log; it never replaces the server-generated X-Request-Id.

Lists the administrators in the current account using cursor-based pagination. By default, only active administrators are returned. Set `deleted` to `true` to list only administrators in the trash. Use `q` to search by name or email address (case-insensitive partial match) and `role` to filter by role.
Retrieve an administrator GET
Retrieves an administrator by its public ID. The response includes an `ETag` representing the current revision. Send this value in the `If-Match` header when updating the administrator or its permissions to avoid overwriting a newer version. Administrators in the trash are not returned by this operation.
