## Description

Queue creation of a new project. Project creation is asynchronous, so this returns an operation reference rather than the finished project - poll the project list to see it appear. Use when onboarding a new team or product area. Example: name `Payments Platform`, visibility `private`, Agile process. [See the documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/azure/devops/core/projects/create?view=azure-devops-rest-7.1)

| `description` | `string` | No | Description of the new project |
