-- See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

-- The following JSON is sent in the request body.

-- The MyInvois online documentation neglects to tell us the encoding of the documentHash.
-- Should it be base64?  Or hex?  We can only guess.  MyInvois provides no samples,
-- and omits these crucial details which are needed for actual implementation.

-- *** Note: It was confirmed that "hex" is the encoding that is needed.
