# Set initials image for accountless signer

PUT https://demo.docusign.net/restapi/v2.1/accounts/{accountId}/envelopes/{envelopeId}/recipients/{recipientId}/initials_image

Updates the initials image for a signer that does not have a DocuSign account. The supported image formats for this file are: gif, png, jpeg, and bmp. The file size must be less than 200K.

For the Authentication/Authorization for this call, the credentials must match the sender of the envelope, the recipient must be an accountless signer or in person signer. The account must have the `CanSendEnvelope` property set to **true** and the `ExpressSendOnly` property in `SendingUser` structure must be set to **false**.

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (required) (prefixed with ` Bearer  `) — OAuth 2.0 access token (JWT or auth-code grant). Sent as `Authorization: Bearer <token>` on every request except `GET /v2.1` and `GET /service_information`, which are public discovery endpoints.

## Servers

## Request

### Path parameters

- `recipientId` (string, required) — A local reference used to map recipients to other objects, such as specific document tabs. A `recipientId` must be either an integer or a GUID, and the `recipientId` must be unique within an envelope. For example, many envelopes assign the first recipient a `recipientId` of `1`.
