## Description

Create a new Ramp Sandbox location (e.g. `New York HQ`). Use this to add a site before assigning users to it; the returned `id` can be passed to **Update User** or used to filter **List Transactions** / **List Users**. Associating an entity is optional — set the Entity ID only for multi-entity businesses that scope locations to a specific legal entity. [See the documentation](https://docs.ramp.com/developer-api/v1/api/locations#post-developer-v1-locations)

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `name` | `string` | Yes | The name of the new location (e.g. New York HQ). |
| `entityId` | `string` | No | Optional entity ID (a UUID, e.g. dff9389a-2819-468e-a220-28e059b23f8e) to associate with the location. Obtain it from the entity_id field returned by List Locations, or from your Ramp entities in the API. Only needed for multi-entity businesses. |

## Run it

**MCP**

```ts
import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js"
import { StreamableHTTPClientTransport } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/streamableHttp.js"
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const accessToken = await pd.rawAccessToken

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "ramp_sandbox",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "ramp_sandbox-create-location",
  arguments: {
    name: "Name",
    entityId: "Entity ID",
  },
})
```

**TypeScript**

```ts
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "ramp_sandbox-create-location",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    ramp_sandbox: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    name: "Name",
    entityId: "Entity ID",
  },
})

console.log(result)
```
