Invite a customer

POST
/v1/portals/{portalId}/customers
curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.pealboard.com/v1/portals/2489E9AD-2EE2-8E00-8EC9-32D5F69181C0/customers \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{ "email": "hello@example.com", "name": "example", "companyId": "2489E9AD-2EE2-8E00-8EC9-32D5F69181C0", "role": "customer" }'

Creates the customer and emails them a link to the portal. There is no password and no invitation token to redeem: the address is the identity, and signing in sends a six-digit code to it. Company is assigned here and a customer never chooses their own.

Access. Requires the admin role or above (admin, owner). Inviting a customer grants somebody outside the company a way in. API-key scope: portals:write.
