The `process` field determines which workflow the document belongs to, and the `documentType` field specifies the type of document being submitted. By default, the document is uploaded for the calling user. To upload on behalf of another user, set `userId`. When `process` is `SubAccountRequest`, this requires the caller to be an organization administrator; for all other processes, it requires an organization administrator with business-to-business account-opening (B2B AOP) permission. A successful request returns a `documentId`. Store this value for reference in subsequent API calls. **Uploading Documents Before a Subaccount Request** Organization administrators can use this endpoint to upload documents before submitting a subaccount request. Set `process` to `SubAccountRequest` and set `userId` to the CTA user ID of the trader the subaccount is for. Upload each document separately by calling this endpoint three times (once per document type). | Document | `documentType` | [`createPartnerSubAccountRequest`](/prop/api/rest-api-endpoints/users/create-partner-subaccount-request) field | | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Power of Attorney (POA) Form | `POAForm` | `pOAFormDocId` | | Government ID | `Id` | `governmentDocId` | | Proof of Address | `AddressVerificationFAFTA` | `addressDocId` | After collecting all three `documentId` values, pass them to [`createPartnerSubAccountRequest`](/prop/api/rest-api-endpoints/users/create-partner-subaccount-request) as `pOAFormDocId`, `governmentDocId`, and `addressDocId`. **`base64data` Format** Documents are submitted inline as base64 data URIs. The `base64data` field must be a data URI with a supported MIME type prefix. The maximum field length is 8,388,608 characters (approximately 6 MB). ``` data:;base64, ``` Supported MIME types: * `application/pdf` * `text/plain` * `image/` (for example, `image/png` or `image/jpeg`) **Process Types** | Value | Description | | ------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `Identity` | Used during new account onboarding when users need to upload identity documents for Know Your Customer (KYC) verification.
