# Send an envelope for signature

`POST /api/v1/rest/firme/envelopes/{id}/send`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.custodo.ai`
- URL: `https://api.custodo.ai/api/v1/rest/firme/envelopes/{id}/send`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Invites the recipients to sign. THIS EMAILS PEOPLE OUTSIDE THE ORGANISATION and starts a legal process, so show the user the title, the recipients and the recipients and get an explicit yes first. Only a draft can be sent, and only one with at least one recipient.

**Examples**

- Yes, send it to them
  `POST /api/v1/rest/firme/envelopes/11111111-2222-4333-8444-555555555555/send`

## Path parameters

- `id` string, uuid, required

## Headers

- `X-Tenant-Id` string, uuid

## Response `200`

Done. `data` is the tool’s own answer.

- RestResult
  - `ok` true, required
  - `data` unknown, required

## Other responses

- `400`: The arguments did not validate: `error.message` names the field, what it expects and what arrived.
- `401`: No API key, or one that is malformed, unknown, revoked or expired.
- `403`: The call never ran: the module is off for this organisation, the credential lacks the permission or the module, the tier does not cover it, or the tool is destructive and the key was not minted for that.
- `404`: Nothing with that id in this organisation.
- `409`: The record is in a state that does not allow it — under legal hold, already sent, already closed. `error.code` says which.
- `422`: The tool ran and refused, in a sentence of its own (`TOOL_REFUSED`): the message says what to change. Retrying the same call will not help.
- `429`: The API key has spent its minute, or its day. Every request a key makes counts. See `Retry-After`.
