Hi Melvin,

Try:

# Create new zone "example.org" with nameservers ns1.example.org,
# ns2.example.org
curl -X POST --data '{"name":"example.org", "kind": "Master", "masters": [],
 "nameservers": ["ns1.example.org", "ns2.example.org"]}' -v -H 'X-API-Key:
 changeme' http://127.0.0.1:8081/servers/localhost/zones | jq .

This is from: https://doc.powerdns.com/md/httpapi/README/

Can you let us know if this works?
