Three.js extrude vertically

I am new to three.js and I want to extrude a shape vertically. I can set the points of the 2D shape, but when I extrude it, the extrusion happens along the z axis. I want to extrude the shape along the y axis, how can I make this happen in the simplest way?(In this example I know could use a box geometry, because Im extruding a rectangle, but its only because of simplicity, i want to extrude complex shapes).

One thing i tried, is rotating the mesh afer extruding it, but that messes up the startpoint for me(makes it more difficult to calculate the positions of the objects, contained by the extruded objects).

So to keep it simple, I want something like this, without rotations.

my code:

export function createStorageLocation(storageLocation: StorageLocation) {
  const shape = new Shape();
  shape.moveTo(0, 0);
  shape.lineTo(0, 200 / 100);
  shape.lineTo(400 / 100, 200 / 100);
  shape.lineTo(400 / 100, 0);
  shape.lineTo(0, 0);

  const extrudeSettings: ExtrudeGeometryOptions = {
    steps: 2,
    depth: 10,
    bevelEnabled: false,
    bevelThickness: 1,
    bevelSize: 1,
    bevelOffset: 0,
    bevelSegments: 1,
  };

  const geometry = new ExtrudeGeometry(shape, extrudeSettings);

  const material = new MeshStandardMaterial({
    color: 'blue',
    opacity: 0.7,
    transparent: false,
  });

  const location = new Mesh(geometry, material);
  const axesHelper = new AxesHelper(5);
  location.add(axesHelper);
  location.position.set(
    storageLocation.startPoint.x / 100,
    storageLocation.startPoint.y / 100,
    storageLocation.startPoint.z / 100
  );
  return location;
}

Allright I found a solution with rotation and translation, what I messed up was that I rotated the mesh,not the geomerty. But I’m still courious about the correct way of doing this. Working code:

export function createStorageLocation(storageLocation: StorageLocation) {
  const shape = new Shape();
  shape.moveTo(0, 0);
  shape.lineTo(0, 200 / 100);
  shape.lineTo(400 / 100, 200 / 100);
  shape.lineTo(400 / 100, 0);
  shape.lineTo(0, 0);

  const extrudeSettings: ExtrudeGeometryOptions = {
    steps: 2,
    depth: 10,
    bevelEnabled: false,
    bevelThickness: 1,
    bevelSize: 1,
    bevelOffset: 0,
    bevelSegments: 1,
  };

  const geometry = new ExtrudeGeometry(shape, extrudeSettings);
  geometry.rotateX(MathUtils.degToRad(-90));
  geometry.translate(0, 0, 200 / 100);

  const material = new MeshStandardMaterial({
    color: 'blue',
    opacity: 0.7,
    transparent: false,
  });

  const location = new Mesh(geometry, material);
  const axesHelper = new AxesHelper(5);
  location.add(axesHelper);
  location.position.set(
    storageLocation.startPoint.x / 100,
    storageLocation.startPoint.y / 100,
    storageLocation.startPoint.z / 100
  );

  location.updateMatrix();
  return location;
}

result:
