Steps

  1. Upload the base document as a transient document using POST /transientDocuments; note the transientDocumentId
  2. Create the library document with POST /api/rest/v6/libraryDocuments passing fileInfos (with transientDocumentId), name, state (ACTIVE), templateTypes (DOCUMENT for a reusable full document, or FORM_FIELD_LAYER for a field-only layer), and sharingMode (USER, GROUP, or ACCOUNT) to control visibility
  3. Capture the libraryDocumentId from the response; this ID is used to reference the template when creating agreements
  4. Create an agreement from the library document by including a libraryDocumentId entry in the fileInfos array of your POST /agreements request instead of a transientDocumentId
  5. Manage the library document lifecycle with GET /libraryDocuments to list all templates, and PUT /libraryDocuments/{libraryDocumentId}/state to archive or reactivate a template
