An Individual is a person, shared and reusable across businesses. The same Individual can be an owner of one business and a signatory of another. Individuals live on their own standalone resource, /v1/individuals, so you create a person once and link them wherever they apply by id.

Creating a person and linking them to a business are two distinct operations. This section covers the person record itself; linking a person as an owner or signatory happens on Owners & Signatories.
