## Create **post** `/v2/load_balancers` To create a new load balancer instance, send a POST request to `/v2/load_balancers`. You can specify the Droplets that will sit behind the load balancer using one of two methods: * Set `droplet_ids` to a list of specific Droplet IDs. * Set `tag` to the name of a tag. All Droplets with this tag applied will be assigned to the load balancer. Additional Droplets will be automatically assigned as they are tagged. These methods are mutually exclusive. ### Returns - **load\_balancer:** `LoadBalancer`
