# Create a project and its default views atomically

> Owner/admin only. A successful request also creates Backlog, Todo, In Progress, and Done board columns; a Default board view containing them; and All Tasks, My Tasks, and Recently Updated custom views. If any default cannot be created, the transaction rolls back and no partial project remains.
