# TMF632 v5 Party Management API

The Party Management API (TMF632) provides a standardized mechanism for party management, such as creation, update, retrieval, and deletion of parties.

TMF632 supports these resources.

Using this API you can perform the following operations on individual and organization parties.

- Retrieve the list of parties from the system
- Get party details based on conditions or an ID parameter
- Create a party (individual or organization)
- Update an existing party
- Delete an existing party
