# Create Subprojects

POST https://YOUR_SPACE.signalwire.com/api/laml/2010-04-01/Accounts
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

Creates a subproject beneath the project used to authenticate the request and returns it as an Account. Use this route for integrations built around Account SIDs and form-encoded requests; use [Create a subproject](/docs/apis/rest/projects/create-subproject) for a JSON request.

#### Permissions

The API token used to authenticate must have the following scope(s) enabled to make a successful request: _Management_.

[Learn more about API scopes](/docs/platform/your-signalwire-api-space).

Reference: https://signalwire.com/docs/compatibility-api/rest/accounts/create-subprojects

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (basic auth, required) — SignalWire Basic Authentication using Project ID and API Token. The client sends HTTP requests with the Authorization header containing the word Basic followed by a space and a base64-encoded string of project_id:token. The project ID will be used as the username and the API token as the password. Example: ``` Authorization: Basic base64(project_id:token) ```
