Accept a contract on behalf of the contractor.

This endpoint records contractor acceptance and progresses the contract through YunoJuno’s normal acceptance flow.

Restricted availability

This endpoint is only enabled for client accounts on the YunoJuno platform that have an enterprise agreement in place with YunoJuno. It is intended for clients that run their own contractor-facing experience and operational workflow while YunoJuno manages the underlying contract lifecycle.

Only call this endpoint after you have already captured the contractor’s explicit agreement to the contract terms in your own experience.

We recommend retrieving /contracts/{contract_id}/checklists/accept/ first and only calling this endpoint once there are no blocking checklist items.
