# Box Sign

export const Link = ({href, children, className, ...props}) => {
  const localizedHref = href;
  return <a href={localizedHref} className={className} {...props}>
      {children}
    </a>;
};

Programmatically harness the full functionality of the Box Sign web app
experience by leveraging Box Sign’s API endpoints to create, list, resend, and
cancel sign requests.

## Enablement

The following account types support requests through the Box Sign API:
Business, Business Plus, Enterprise, Enterprise Suites, Enterprise Plus, and
Enterprise Advanced.
To locate your account type, navigate to **Account Settings** and scroll down
to the **Account Details** section of the **Account** tab. For Admin details on
restricting access, please see our [support article][restrict].

## Required scopes

The following <Link href="/guides/api-calls/permissions-and-errors/scopes">scopes</Link> must be enabled for an application before use of
Box Sign's endpoints.

## Testing

Due to the feature parity, it may be useful to familiarize yourself with
[Box Sign functionality using the Box web app][webapp] before leveraging the
API. As with all API endpoints, we recommend testing via
[developer sandbox environment][sandbox] to eliminate the risk of impacting
production content.
