# Environments

## Create Environment

`client.beta.environments.create(EnvironmentCreateParamsparams, RequestOptionsoptions?): BetaEnvironment`

**post** `/v1/environments`

Create a new environment with the specified configuration.

### Parameters

- `params: EnvironmentCreateParams`

    Body param: Human-readable name for the environment

  - `config?: BetaCloudConfigParams | BetaSelfHostedConfigParams | null`

    Body param: Environment configuration

### Returns

- `BetaSelfHostedWorkQueueStats`

  Statistics about the work queue for an environment.

  Uses Redis Stream consumer group metrics for O(1) queries.

  - `depth: number`

    Number of work items waiting to be picked up (lag from consumer group)

  - `oldest_queued_at: string | null`

    RFC 3339 timestamp of oldest item in the work stream (includes both queued and pending items), null if stream empty

  - `pending: number`

    Number of work items being processed (polled but not acknowledged)

    The type of object

    - `"work_queue_stats"`

  - `workers_polling: number | null`

    Number of workers that have polled for work in the last 30 seconds. Requires worker_id to be sent with poll requests.

### Example

```typescript
import Anthropic from '@anthropic-ai/sdk';

const client = new Anthropic({
  apiKey: process.env['ANTHROPIC_API_KEY'], // This is the default and can be omitted
});

const betaSelfHostedWorkQueueStats = await client.beta.environments.work.stats(
  'env_011CZkZ9X2dpNyB7HsEFoRfW',
);

console.log(betaSelfHostedWorkQueueStats.depth);
```

#### Response
