This POST request will create a GlobalParameter resource and the first GlobalParameterValue

resource. Global Parameters can be referenced in any Smart Contracts deployed to your

instance of Vault.

You’ll set the id within the global parameter so that Smart Contracts can retrieve the values

for this global parameter. The parameter will include a display_name and description (ie.

what the parameter is) along with a definition of a shape. A global parameter can have a

definition of number, str, denomination or date. See the documentation hub for the structure.

The initial_value should be what you want the initial value of the GlobalParameterValue

to be. Should you want to change this, you will make a POST request to

global-parameter-values to append a new GlobalParameterValue to the Vault Core database.
