  title: SignSealShip Partner API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    The SignSealShip partner API: create sign / notarize / ship orders, create
    Verified Closing Rooms, seal Closing Passports and Proof Passports, and
    manage webhooks. Partner endpoints authenticate with a bearer key
    (`Authorization: Bearer sss_pk_...`); public verification endpoints need no
    key — possession of the verify, room, or order code is the authorization.
    See the Guides for full prose, rate limits, and signature verification.
