I am trying to create an application with DocuSign Connect. In DocuSign Connect I have enabled Include Basic Authentication Header, but still I am not able to make a call on the URL provided. I checked the logs on the server and the request reached the server but was rejected because of invalid credentials.I am able to make a call to the URL from postman with the same username and password. Am I missing some settings here? Is DocuSign not sending the authentication in the header as “Basic <Credentials>” or is it doing something else? Thanks in advance.

My integration key is currently in development and we’re getting ready to submit for review to move into production. However, we need to continue testing with they key until go live. Once the key is moved into production, will I still be able to use it in the test environment? How long does the approval generally take to promote the key to prod?

Hi everyone,I'm running into an issue when making API calls to DocuSign using our SOAP client. Specifically:Not all the tab values we're setting are being sent in the request. Even when we explicitly define certain tab types (e.g., RadioButton), they appear to default to simple text fields in the envelope.I've attached an example of a radio tab configured prior to the payload, along with a Fiddler capture showing the request being sent.Has anyone run into similar behavior or have suggestions on what to check? Any help is appreciated! Fiddler outputRadio Tab configuration 

Here are some of the latest popular questions that developers asked on Docusign Community and Stack Overflow in the month of April 2025.Thread: Multiple documents with Auto-Place not using DocumentIdhttps://community.docusign.com/esignature-api-63/multiple-documents-with-auto-place-not-using-documentid-23643Summary: The developer has created an envelope through the C# SDK and is trying to add tabs to the documents in that envelope using anchor tagging. They have the same anchor string appearing in multiple documents, but they don’t want the same tab to appear in both documents; so they are trying to use the DocumentId property on the tab to resolve this. They are finding that the same tab is still appearing in both documents where the anchor string appears.Answer: The DocumentId property is only meant to be used when placing tabs with fixed positioning. When using anchor tagging, the tab will appear in every location where the anchor string appears, in all documents in the envelope. To

Hello, In my Django app, we can create and edit a docuisgn template internally. I am using the embedded url. It works great, but there are a few tweaks. Safari does not like iframes for example. And the return url in dev mode can be a challenge. But in production it works. I am looking to harden the approach. I have added a few things like a side bar menu to help with guiding people through the process. Stuff like that. Does anyone have an experiences with this approach that they would like to share? thank you. Paul.

I am developing a React Native application where I need to implement document signing functionality for PDF files. The requirement is to allow users to upload a PDF from their device and sign it using DocuSign. However, I want to achieve this without creating or managing an envelope in DocuSign.Is there a way to directly sign a PDF document within my React Native app without involving the envelope process?

Hello,I'm currently using the DocuSign Java SDK (docusign-esign-java) version 6.0.0 to call the createEditView method from the TemplatesApi class, as shown below:templateViewRequest.setReturnUrl(returnUrl);templateViewRequest.setViewAccess("template");ViewUrl view = templatesApi.createEditView(accountId, templateId, templateViewRequest);I would like to hide the “Back” button on the Template Edit View screen.According to the API documentation, it's possible to customize the embedded view using the settings object (e.g., showBackButton, startingScreen, etc.), but the TemplateViewRequest class in the SDK doesn't seem to support setting this settings field.I would like to ask: Is there a way to set the settings parameter when using createEditView with the Java SDK? If not, is there a workaround or should we call the REST API directly using a custom HTTP request? Do we need to have a specific feature flag enabled on our account to use settings in view requests? Any guidance would be gre

Our company has two Docusign accounts, one of which is linked to Ironclad. Periodically, at random periods, the integration goes off and any signature process is stopped. We are obliged to log on to Docusign and relink the two apps. This behaviour is not normal, since a link validly affirmed should be permanent. If there is a periodic reset for whatever reason (e.g. security) this should be clearly stated so that the relinking of accoints can be made object of a procedure to ensure uninterrupted functionality. The issue is critical as it interruprs workflows and prevents the signature of contracts. Thank you in advance for your feedback.

We have a need to support a dynamic header -< detail form where the detail is a dynamic list of items.  Similar to a purchase order with many order lines.We want to repopulate the header and the detail with what we know about the recipient and let them fill in the blanks for missing information in each subform.  This could be a grid-like view or <Previous  |  Next > type of control for each of the lines (probably easier for a mobile app).I thought I could use Agreement Template Builder template with a dynamic table, but ATB templates are not supported.

Hi!I’m trying to make API calls according to this how-to articlehttps://developers.docusign.com/platform/auth/authcode/confidential-authcode-get-token/But I’m stuck on “Step 3. Get your user's base URI” - the https://account-d.docusign.com/oauth/userinfo url always response with:{ "error": "internal_server_error", "reference_id": "d63dceae-72c6-4d27-9218-3b0fd58b2c30"}Authorization header is added as described in the docs -Bearer somelongCode......ProvidedIDK why it’s happening because I’m able to get Docusign access token from step 2 - that’s means that credentials set properly. So what I’m doing wrong?Thanks!

Hello,I am trying to create a module in Make.com that checks if an envelope has been completed. This works for a while, but eventually, I receive an error message. I have a business plan with DocuSign. I have tried several solutions in both DocuSign and Make.com to resolve the issue, but so far without success.I believe the access token might only be valid for a limited time, and I’m looking for a way to either extend the access token’s validity or use a refresh token so that the system doesn’t keep failing as it does now.Has anyone encountered this issue and can offer guidance on how to solve it?Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello,We are trying to change the Account on which the Docusign eSignature/M-Files integration is running but we cannot.Right now the integration is live on Account A of a specific user and we want to move it to Account B of the same user.Even thought we changed the default account of the user and reauthenticated the user, it seems like the refresh token is still authenticated to Account A.Is there a way to force the expiration of the refresh token? Is the Connected App that we see on the user called “app.docusign.com Version 1.x” related?Thanks in advance,Christos Mouskos

I’m trying to receive webhook notifications from DocuSign on my endpoint but the request fails with the error:"The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel."My server supports TLS 1.3 minimum. DocuSign webhook requests fail when attempting to connect.Does DocuSign support TLS 1.3 for webhooks? If not, is there a workaround or fix to make this work?

I am trying to pull the values of check boxes when checked using the built-in Power Automate connectors.

I am creating an envelope using the API and adding multiple documents and using Auto-Place to add the “Sign Here” tabs. The anchor string is the same on both documents but I would like the tabs to only place on the document specified by the “DocumentId” on the tab. This does not seem to work.Here is example code using the C# SDK:Is it expected that the SignHere would be added to both documents? If so, how would I prevent that? var envelope = new EnvelopeDefinition(); Document doc1 = new Document { DocumentBase64 = doc1DocxBytesBase64, Name = "docusign-test", FileExtension = "docx", DocumentId = "1", }; Document doc2 = new Document { DocumentBase64 = doc2DocxBytesBase64, Name = "docusign-test2", FileExtension = "docx", DocumentId = "2", }; envelope.Documents = new List<Document> { doc1, doc2 }; var signer = new Signer(); signer.Name = "Test Name"; signer.Email = "test@test.com"; signer.RecipientId = "1"; SignHere signHere1 = new SignHere { AnchorString = "\\s1\\", Docume

Hi. We have a free developer API account and are using our API calls prior to going live. When sending a document to sign via DocuSign, the signer isn't able to sign from her own DocuSign account. When document is sent, there is nowhere for her to log in to her own DocuSign account to sign the document. She is only able to sign the document with a generic signature. Is this because we are only testing in the free developer API account? Once we go live, will the signer be able to log in to her DocuSign account to sign the document using her uploaded signature? Thank you. 

Hello there,In a production environment, we call the listStatusChange method with a list of envelope IDs retrieved from a database. This function is called in a cron job that runs every hour. It worked fine for two or three months until we suddenly got this exception:Error while requesting server, received a non successful HTTP code [404] with response Body: line 344 At first, I thought it was a Docusign account change in production, but we only use one with several other applications.Do you know what could cause this error? 

ok, this is my case. I’m using a template with a text fields that pre filled them using docusing sdk for C#. When i create the signerUrl using CreateRecipientView method, all is ok; but when I use CreateSenderView and the status is “sent” those text fields are empty. So, basically I want to those text fields (like, name, office, phone number) even when the status is sent or completed. Even I get the PDF document using “GetDocument” and it does not shows the text fields. Should I use another field different than a text field?The main idea is to somebody else (different than the signer) to review the document (signed or not)

Hi everyone,I’d like to automate a process between HubSpot and DocuSign where a document is sent out for signature to an external recipient (e.g. a client), without me, as the sender, being required to sign it.Here’s the situation: I’m using HubSpot to trigger workflows. I want HubSpot to automatically trigger a DocuSign envelope when a condition is met (e.g. deal stage changes). The envelope should go only to the external signer. I, the internal sender, do not need to sign the document, and ideally shouldn’t have to interact with the envelope manually. I'm concerned because my user is secured with 2FA, and I want to make sure I can still automate this securely. My questions: Is it possible to use the DocuSign integration (or API via middleware like Zapier/Make/Tray.io) to send a signature request without the sender being a signer? How would you structure the envelope and workflow to make this happen securely? Does the 2FA requirement on my account limit these automations i
