Accept the partner terms

The partner_terms.accept operation: POST /api/v1/partner_terms_acceptance in the REST API and the partner_terms_accept tool in the MCP server.

POST/api/v1/partner_terms_acceptance

Records that the organization accepts a version of Ownrecord's Partner and App Terms (/legal/partners), which apply to apps the organization lists for every organization. Read the version first at /legal/partners/{version}. version must be the version in effect or an announced newer one (see acceptableVersions in partner_terms.get). A material change of the terms asks for acceptance again before the next listing application.

Only a person signed in to the console can accept, with org:write (owners and admins). API keys, agents, apps and OAuth clients can't, and neither can platform staff under a support-access grant. Accepting the version already accepted changes nothing.
