# Post forms

POST https://api.cloudraker.com/v1/signing/forms
Content-Type: application/json

Uses the same resource permissions and lifecycle as the RakeSign application. Integration access is limited to its shared team. Required scopes: forms:write, templates:read.

Reference: https://docs.cloudraker.com/rakesign/api/rake-sign/signing-post-forms

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — Bearer authentication of the form `Bearer <token>`, where token is your auth token.

## Request

### Body (application/json)

This endpoint expects an object.

- `name` (string, required)
- `templateId` (string, required)
- `requesterRoleId` (string, required)
- `fixedRecipients` (list of V1SigningFormsPostRequestBodyContentApplicationJsonSchemaFixedRecipientsItems, required)
- `inputs` (list of V1SigningFormsPostRequestBodyContentApplicationJsonSchemaInputsItems, required)
- `description` (string, optional, default: )
- `version` (integer, optional)

## Response

### 201

Authorized signing resource.

- `name` (string, required)
- `templateId` (string, required)
- `requesterRoleId` (string, required)
- `fixedRecipients` (list of RakeSignFormFixedRecipientsItems, required)
- `inputs` (list of RakeSignFormInputsItems, required)
- `version` (integer, required)
- `id` (string, required)
- `ownerId` (string, required)
- `status` (enum, required)
  - Allowed values: `draft`, `published`, `revoked`
- `createdAt` (string, required)
- `updatedAt` (string, required)
- `description` (string, optional, default: )
- `publicPath` (string, optional)

## Errors

### 400 Bad Request Error

The request could not complete.

- `code` (string, required)
- `message` (string, required)
- `retryable` (boolean, required)
- `requestId` (string, required)
- `docUrl` (string, optional)

### 401 Unauthorized Error

The request could not complete.

- `code` (string, required)
- `message` (string, required)
- `retryable` (boolean, required)
- `requestId` (string, required)
- `docUrl` (string, optional)

### 403 Forbidden Error

The request could not complete.

- `code` (string, required)
- `message` (string, required)
- `retryable` (boolean, required)
- `requestId` (string, required)
- `docUrl` (string, optional)

### 404 Not Found Error

- `message` (string, required)
- `retryable` (boolean, required)
- `requestId` (string, required)

### 429 Too Many Requests Error

Rate limited. The `/v1` API allows at least **67 requests per minute per organization** (about 1,000 requests per 15 minutes) — a guaranteed floor, enforced per edge location, so a geographically spread caller may get more. Wait for the `Retry-After` interval and retry — the error is `retryable`.

- `code` (enum, required)
  - Allowed values: `rate_limited`
- `message` (string, required)
- `retryable` (boolean, required)
- `requestId` (string, required)
- `docUrl` (string, optional)

### 503 Service Unavailable Error

The request could not complete.

- `code` (string, required)
- `message` (string, required)
- `retryable` (boolean, required)
- `requestId` (string, required)
- `docUrl` (string, optional)
