# Mint an ingestion key for a board

Mints a key that writes into ONE custom board with no session behind it — what an outside system posts rows through. Body: `name` and `scopes`, at least one of read, rows:write, columns:write, partner, processing. THE ONE ANSWER THAT CARRIES THE SECRET: only its hash is stored, so a lost key is re-minted, never recovered. Manage on the board.

Access class: `board:manage`.
