Share access to an individual envelope with the eSignature REST API

You can now use the eSignature REST API to share a single envelope with another user in your account. With Shared Access, the envelope owner (the principal) can grant another user (the agent) permission to manage a specific envelope without adding them as a recipient.

To share an envelope, call the POST /v2.1/accounts/{accountId}/envelopes/{envelopeId}/shares endpoint. The agent can then retrieve the envelopes shared with them using GET /v2.1/accounts/{accountId}/envelopes/shared. This feature is available in eSignature REST API v2.1 only.
