summary: Create a user
description: 'Creating a user requires one value, a GUID. This creates a user in the Cloud Controller database.
Generally, the GUID should match the GUID of an already-created user in the UAA database, though this is not required. Creating a user by guid is only permitted by admins.
If CAPI property `cc.allow_user_creation_by_org_manager` is enabled, a UAA user will be automatically created if it does not exist yet. The UAA user will be only created when `username` and `origin` have been provided instead of a guid. Additionally `origin` must be different from `uaa`. Admins and OrgManagers can make use of the UAA user creation.'

description: 'A set of key-value pairs that describe the resource. Labels are a JSON object that contains information about a resource. They are used to tag resources with metadata that can be used to filter and group resources. Labels are included in the response body of a request to retrieve a resource.
Labels are user-specified key/value pairs that are attached to API Resources. They are queryable, identifying attributes of a resource, but they do not affect the operation of CloudFoundry.
For example, an app may be assigned a label with key sensitive and possible values true or false.
Users could then find all sensitive apps with a selector for sensitive=true, resulting in a response containing only apps having the label key sensitive with a label value of true.
Labels
Labels allow users to apply identifying attributes to resources that are meaningful to the user, but not the CloudFoundry system.
Examples may include (but are not limited to):
"production" : "true" or "production" : "false"
"env" : "dev" or "env" : "test" or "env" : "prod"
"chargeback-code" : "abc123"
Label keys
Label keys are made up of an (optional) prefix, and name. If a prefix is present, it is separated from the name by a /. Prefixes are dns names intended to enable namespacing of label keys.
A label key prefix must adhere to the following restrictions:
Length: 0-253 characters
Allowed characters: alphanumeric ( [a-z0-9A-Z] ), -, and .
DNS subdomain format (series of subdomain labels separated by .)
A label key name must adhere to the following restrictions:
Length: 1-63 characters
Allowed characters: alphanumeric ( [a-z0-9A-Z] ), -, _, and .
Must begin and end with an alphanumeric character
Label values
Label values must adhere to the following restrictions:

Annotations are user-specified key-value pairs that are attached to API resources. They do not affect the operation of Cloud Foundry. Annotations cannot be used in filters.
When a service instance is being created, the service broker is sent the annotations of the service instance, and the space and organization in which the service instance resides. When a service instance is being updated, the service broker is sent the annotations of the space and organization in which the service instance resides. When a service binding is being created, the service broker is sent annotations of any associated app, and the space and organization in which the binding resides. Only annotations with a prefix (e.g. company.com/contacts) are sent to service brokers.
