Purging documents POSTMAN Help

Question

I’m testing the API call to add an envelope to be purged. I have a completed envelope ID from one of our Dev environment. I’ve been able to successfully change the purgeState from “documents_and_metadata_and_redact_queued” to “documents_dequeued” using the API Explorer from developers.docusign.com

When I try the same API call from Postman, I’m getting the following error:

"errorCode": "DOCUMENT_PURGE_FAILED",

"message": "Error adding documents to the purge queue. Only the sender may remove the envelope documents"

I can make other successful calls using Postman. I’m the same user; that sent the envelope.

Any idea what the issue is in Postman?

I figured it out. I always say, double check and check again. I was using the wrong envelope ID from a different Dev account. All I had to do was change the Account ID on my call.
