Creating a zone may result in charges being made against your account balance, these charges are detailed in the `cost` response object. For example, if the create operation results in provisioning a reserved datacenter zone subject to per-IP charges. In the event of the available account balance being insufficient an `HTTP 402 Payment Required` response will be returned.

> 📘 Previewing zone charges
> 
> To preview any charges required to create the zone use the `preview` query parameter. When `preview=true` the proposed new zone is returned in the `zone` response object and any associated charges are returned in the `cost` response object, but no changes are actually committed. This is useful to `dry run` creating a zone and view its` cost impact, before committing to the zone create operation.


Create a zone

Permanently deletes multiple zones (up to a maximum of 100 per-request). It cannot be undone. Also immediately stops any proxy requests through the zones from succeeding.
