Parameters

device_id	type: string	ID of the Device
name	type: string Optional	Name of Access Code
starts_at	type: string Optional	From when is the code valid
ends_at	type: string Optional	Code expiry. Must be a timestamp in the future and after starts_at.
code	type: string Optional	Access code of device
use_backup_access_code_pool	type: boolean Optional	Use a backup access code pool provided by Seam. This allows you to use /access_codes/pull_backup_access_code
common_code_key	type: string Optional	any two access codes with the same common_code_key are guaranteed to have the same code
prefer_native_scheduling	type: boolean Optional	Whether native scheduling should be used for time-bound codes when supported by the provider (defaults to true)
allow_external_modification	type: boolean Optional	Whether external modification of the codes should be allowed (defaults to false)
is_offline_access_code	type: boolean Optional	Whether the access code is an offline access code
is_one_time_use	type: boolean Optional	Whether the offline access code is a single-use access code.
