Create a payee representative or owner

post

https://api.wingspan.app/v3/payments/payees/{payeeId}/stakeholders

Create the Stakeholder row first, then create the person's Individual ComplianceEntity with the row as subject, then PATCH accountSuppliedComplianceEntityId onto the row. These people grant no Account access. The current controller becomes the payee Business representative; other people with at least 25% ownership become its beneficial owners.
Every person needs every required identity field before Banking runs KYC on anyone. If one person lacks a field, the Business is not Verified and verify does not name the missing field. After a person's manual review completes, run verify on the Business again. After advancing a person's identity, point this row at the successor.
A first-try TIN mismatch removes the Business name and EIN so they can be re-entered. Until they are re-entered, the 1099 falls back to V1 payer-provided W-9 data or has no complete W-9.

Headers

Idempotency-Key

string

length between 1 and 255

^[\x21-\x7e]{1,255}$

Optional idempotency token for authenticated POST and PATCH requests. Reusing the same key and body returns the cached response for 24 hours, except credential operations that explicitly document a 409 because one-time secret material is never cached; reusing it with a different body returns 409 IdempotencyKeyConflict. Use 1-255 printable ASCII characters.

X-Wingspan-Account

string

^(?:[A-Za-z0-9_.]{22}|[a-f0-9]{24})$

Select the Account for an Account-scoped operation. A direct ServiceAccount API key MUST supply this header, and the target must be within the ServiceAccount owner's or Authorization grant's Account boundary. A Person bearer may select an Account on which it has an active Stakeholder, and an Account session may select its bound Account (or a descendant only when the session explicitly includes descendants).
