The draftOwner query parameter is required and identifies the draft owner. It accepts either:
  • A userId (e.g., usr_abc123def456789) — used directly
  • A login email (e.g., john@acme.com) — resolved to userId via email lookup
This follows the same pattern as contactOwner in the Lead API. Team membership is verified in both cases.
