## POST a function

  --header "Accept: application/vnd.brella.v4+json" \
  --header "Brella-API-Access-Token: ${BRELLA_API_ACCESS_TOKEN}" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data-raw '{

The response type is `function`. Useful write-response fields are `name`, `position`, and `updated_at`.
