The `scopes create` command lets you create a new scope.
## Example
This example creates a scope with the name `prodops` and the description `Scope for ProdOps`:
```shell-session
$ boundary scopes create -name prodops -description "Scope for ProdOps"
```

```shell-session
$ boundary scopes create [options] [args]
