You must use the lockToken to update or delete an existing lock. You must also include the `lockToken` in the header for every PUT call that you make on the envelope while it is locked. If you do not include the `lockToken`, the system returns the following error:\n\n```{\n   \"errorCode\": \"EDIT_LOCK_NOT_LOCK_OWNER\",\n   \"message\": \"The user is not the owner of the lock. The template is locked by another user or in another application\"\n}```\n\n`Note`: Users must have envelope locking capability enabled to use this function (userSetting canLockEnvelopes must be set to true for the user)."
