# Create AutomationTile

> Create a new AutomationTile record.

An **AutomationTile** represents a physical NFC chip and QR code tile that triggers actions in a Nexudus-powered coworking space. Each tile is linked to a single action (e.g. check-in, booking, door unlock, HTTP request) that fires when a customer scans or taps the tile.

The `Action` field determines what happens when the tile is scanned. Some actions require additional data in `ActionParameters`:

| Action                                                 | ActionParameters format                                                        |
| ------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| CheckIn / CheckOut / EventCheckIn                      | Not required                                                                   |
| BookingCheckIn / ResourceCleaned / ShowNewBookingForm  | Resource ID                                                                    |
| BookResource                                           | Resource ID `\|` default booking length in minutes (default 60)                |
| BookDesk                                               | Desk (floor plan item) ID `\|` default booking length in minutes (default 480) |
| ExtendBookingBy                                        | Number of minutes to extend                                                    |
| RequestUrl                                             | Target URL for the HTTP POST request                                           |
| RedirectUrl                                            | URL to redirect the user to                                                    |
| UnlockAct365Door / UnlockDoorDeckDoor / UnlockKisiDoor | Door ID from the access-control provider                                       |
| SmartLock                                              | Smartalock locker bank ID                                                      |

Tiles can optionally be geo-fenced to restrict scanning to a physical area around the tile's installed location. Enable `EnableGeofence`, set `Latitude`/`Longitude`, and choose a `GeofencePrecission` level. `MaxDistanceMeters` overrides the precision preset with a custom radius.

Set `CheckCustomerIn` to also check the customer into the space when they scan the tile, regardless of the tile's primary action.

## Authentication

<Note>
  This endpoint requires OAuth2 authentication. Include a valid bearer token in the `Authorization` header.
  The authenticated user must be a full unrestricted administrator or have the **`AutomationTile-Create`** role.
</Note>
