    Currently you won't be able to create REST API for 3rd party workloads. With the release of the Fabric extensibility toolkit we are about to release very soon the ability for Workload Developers declare their item definition and than you will be able to create 3rd party workload items. 
    The Fabric  workload development a create item API is only for the workload developer itself to for using workloads programatically. 

    Thanks for asking!

Okay, I guess we do still need to let Fabric know that the item has been created though, otherwise our requests to the `resolvePermissions` endpoint will fail with a 404 Not Found error. I guess if this API is internal then our only way to provision an item is using the JavaScript SDK?
