Question

Enable Navigator API Full-Text Search ($search) on Demo Account

Hi DocuSign Community,

We are currently integrating with the DocuSign Navigator API in the demo environment and are facing an issue with the $search query parameter.

Environment:
https://api-d.docusign.com

Account ID:
6ed4aa88-5dd9-499a-bc86-d2c29ab47142

Issue:
The following request returns 403 Forbidden:

GET /v1/accounts/{accountId}/agreements?$search=sample

Response:
{
"title": "Search Failed",
"status": 403,
"detail": "The query could not be processed. Please check your filter expression."
}

What we verified:

  • GET /agreements works correctly (200 OK)

  • $filter parameter works correctly

  • $search consistently returns 403

  • Combining $search and $filter returns 400 Bad Request

Questions:

  1. Does $search require additional provisioning or enablement in demo accounts?

  2. Is full-text search available by default in Navigator API v1?

  3. Can $search and $filter be combined together in v1?

  4. Is there a different endpoint or API version required for full-text search support?

  5. Does Navigator search require indexing or a specific subscription/plan?

According to the Navigator API documentation, $search should support full-text search on agreement fields such as title and type.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hii ​@venkat-kotu
 

Does the type field returned by the Agreements List API represent an internal agreement type key/enum rather than the display value shown in the DocuSign UI?

If so, is there an API, metadata endpoint, or official mapping table available that can be used to convert these values to the same display labels used in the UI?
