Create a face

Adds a user-drawn face box to an asset, for a face the detector missed. To remove a face detection instead, use delete_face; to introduce a brand-new identity first, use create_person.

Request body

asset_idstring required

ID of the asset (with asset_ prefix) to draw the face box on. The asset must belong to the target library.

person_idstring nullable

Optional person ID (with person_ prefix) to assign this face to at creation. Omit to leave it unassigned; assign it later via update_face. Use create_person first if the identity doesn't exist yet.

library_idstring nullable

Library to create the face in. Optional if the user has a single library; required when they have multiple.
