How to create 'Security Role' (role entity) through the REST API?

1

Here is the documentation link where mentioned that you can use different operations on this type of the entity Operations Supported POST GET PATCH DELETE. I am interested in using a request to POST.

Can anyone help me with the creation of the role entity?

I tried the request to POST https://my_org.dynamics.com/api/data/v9.0/roles with the body :

    {
        "parentrootroleid@odata.bind": "/roles(00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000008)"
    }

but it failed with the code 400 and response body is :

{
    "error": {
        "code": "0x80040203",
        "message": "businessunitid",
        "innererror": {
            "message": "businessunitid",
            "type": "System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[[Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk.OrganizationServiceFault, Microsoft.Xrm.Sdk, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35]]",

        }
    }

This request requires businessunitid in the payload.

entity["businessunitid@odata.bind"] = "/businessunits(B08C8C6C-5C20-E511-80F7-C4346BAC59AC)";
