Is it possible to create a new message board using rest api?

I am writing a java program that posts information to our message boards. It gets the board id from a configuration file that we load in. Is it possible to create a new message board with the boardId if the boardId doesnt exist? Is there a rest call I can make to do this, or would all the boards I want to create have to be manually created with the desired board id?

 

Thanks.

    You should be able to add a board to the community through rest.  The call is "/categories/id/[category id]/boards/add".  You should see this call documented in the Category section of the REST API doc.  

     

    Query Arguments:
    board.id (required) : string - Unique identifier of the board to be created.
    board.title (required) : string - Title of the board to be created.

    And then set attributes? eg we would like the new board to default to hidden from menus
