Document Lifecycle Management

These endpoints manage the control and endorsement lifecycle of TradeTrust-compliant electronic trade documents (eBL, ePN, ETRs).

All lifecycle actions:

  • Are initiated by the Integrating System
  • Require explicit End User approval
  • Are approved only via redirect URL and End User passkeys
  • Update the document’s legal control state

🔐 Approval reminder (single callout box)

All lifecycle actions require explicit End User approval.

Approval is performed only via redirect URL and End User passkeys.

BlockPeer does not support background or automated signing.


📌 Responsibility clarification

  • BlockPeer does not store document state
  • The Integrating System must store:
    • ETR identifiers
    • Current holder / beneficiary / owner
    • Pending transfers and outcomes
  • BlockPeer operates purely as TradeTrust infrastructure

Summary

  • Lifecycle endpoints manage legal control and endorsement
  • Every action is explicitly approved by the End User
  • Approval uses redirect URL + passkeys only
  • Integrating System remains the system of record
