# Create Session

> Create a SCHEDULED session.

Creates a `tutor_sessions` row with status='scheduled' and a participant whose
per-hour rate snapshot is resolved server-side from the org rate matrix. No
charge is initiated — settlement flows through the existing Stripe PaymentIntent
+ webhook, and the tutor-owed ledger row is written only on completion (see PUT
/v1/sessions/{id}/complete). `organization_id`, `creator_id`, `status`, the rate
snapshot, and timestamps are all server-set. `tutor_id`/`student_id` must be
org-scoped (404 otherwise). The money-moving write runs inside a single
transactional RPC. Requires the `sessions:write` scope. Honours `Idempotency-Key`.
