What it returns
Returns the created Workspace with its server-assigned workspaceId.
What changes in Google Tag Manager
The tool changes real Google Tag Manager data as described above. The server does not promise an automatic rollback.

Errors and limitations
Requires the tagmanager.edit.containers scope.
Access also depends on token permissions, quotas, and upstream API limits.
