Add party

<small>Requires an API token with the Document Manager role.</small>

Adds a party to a document.

Adding an internal party

To add one of your account's internal parties to the document, send the account_party_uuid and reference fields. The rest of the party data will be copied from the respective "account party".

Adding an external party

To add an external party to the document, send these fields:

  • reference
  • entity_name
  • address
  • scope

Note: When adding a party that is linked to an account party, only reference can be provided. Attempting to set the other fields will cause the request to be rejected with a validation error.
