# Placeholders

[Open in the interactive reference](https://docs.api.lensing.ai/lensing/v1/groups/psa-placeholders)

A placeholder is a stand-in for a person, used to plan the staffing of PSA projects before a real person is assigned.

Placeholder names are unique within the tenant. A placeholder is not tied to one PSA project. Add a placeholder to a project's team with POST psa/team-members/bulk, and replace it with a person with POST psa/team-members/assign-placeholder.
