account-d Website has a bug and is showing MS Word Content Control objects

In the past few weeks account-d Docusign is broken, it does NOT happen in account DocuSign website. We use Java API and have not changed a single line of code in over a year, but in the past few weeks the MS Word .docx that we send to get signed is showing to everyone the Content Controls that are in the document. This has never happened before, all content controls are hidden in production Docusign and was always hidden on account-d. But now in the past few weeks they are showing, something has broken on account-d.

Error: BULK_SEND_ROLE_NAMES_MUST_BE_UNIQUE

I am using Docusign.eSign .NET package to integrate with docusign. I am trying to use BulkEnvelopesApi.CreateBulkSendRequest. I have two roles - Admin and Supervisor and I am assigning two emails to each of these two roles something like this (captured the model as JSON) {   "bulkCopies":  [  {    "recipients":[      {"email":"admin@contoso.com","name":"Admin","roleName":"Admin"},      {"email":"supervisor-1@contoso.com","name":"Supervisor-1","roleName":"Supervisor"},      {"email":"supervisor-2@contoso.com","name":"Supervisor-2","roleName":"Supervisor"}]}    ],    "name":"Demo"}  }  ]}Now, when I call createbulksendlist, i get the error BULK_SEND_ROLE_NAMES_MUST_BE_UNIQUE. I believe this is because I have Supervisor role twice in the JSON. So how do i send the request where multiple recipients share the same role?

Unable to fill customfields sending envelope

Hello,  We are unable to fill the customfields of a template when we try to send an envelope on Docusign API REST.The endpoint we are using is: {{baseUrl}}/{{apiVersion}}/accounts/{{accountId}}/envelopesThe body is the following: {  "templateId": "xxxxxxxx-4240-4951-bdb1-f43315509f6e",  "templateRoles": [    {      "roleName": "Signer",      "name": "Test Name",      "email": "test@test.com",      "tabs": {        "textTabs": [          {            "tabLabel": "Custom1",            "name": "Custom1",            "value": "Esto es el custom 1",            "documentId": "1",            "pageNumber": "1"          }        ]      }    }  ],  "status": "sent"}  We previously created the field with the label Custom1. But when we receive the template result on the mail tray the fields values are not appearing. The collaboration checkbox is also marked. Any solution?  Thanks in advance

Medical consent form

Is there a way to automate medical consent forms.  Recently I have had to fill out and sign forms for my minor children for religious & civic organizations.  The forms have many check boxes and signature lines as well as text fields.  Both organizations sent them in PDF with the intent of parents printing them, manually filling them out, & returning them in person.  Returning them required standing in long lines while  volunteers visually checked them and verified they were properly filled & signed.  Then all the forms were gathered and put into a box and taken on the trips with the groups to various activities.  As a parent it is a little disconcerting that my child's medical info is on a piece of paper reviewed by volunteers and in a box somewhere.  My question is:   Is there some way to collect and automate that info on DocuSign?  Is there a way that DocuSign forms can populate a database which could be later linked to some sort of QR code on a bracelet so that the relev

Envelope Signature Authentication via API

Hello, I have an integration with my client’s custom software and DocuSign’s rest api. We are creating envelopes from a template. This all works well except we do not want the signer to have to answer the authentication questions before signing. We tried turning this off on my clients DocuSign account but the changes do not work when the envelope is created via the api. Support says we can turn off authentication via the api call but I do not see it anywhere. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Getting the groups a template is shared with via eSignature

How does one get full access control information for templates shared to the user currently logged in or impersonated using the eSignature API? An example use case is the following: an admin user creates a new group; GroupA, and adds User1 to that group, then shares a template, TemplateXYZ, to GroupA . When I am logged into the Docusign UI as User1,  I can see that I have shared access to TemplateXYZ. But there doesn't seem to be an eSignature API that can tell me this. When User1 calls the API to get info for TemplateXYZ (Templates:get) it doesn't return anything about its shared access. And yet there are API to update or delete groups shares for a specific template (Templates:updateGroupShare and Templates:deleteGroupShare).  The only other API I’ve found that seems like it should return the info I’m looking for is Accounts:listSharedAccess. According to its documentation I should be able to pass item_type=templates but that returns a bad-request error with additional message that I

Feasibility of OAuth 2.0 Validation with DocuSign Connect and Salesforce Integration

I am looking to use DocuSign Connect to update the status of processes in Salesforce and, upon completion, save the signed PDF file in Salesforce.While I've been able to update the status using the object mapping feature between DocuSign and Salesforce, I found it difficult to save the PDF file post-signature using this method.To address this, I created a custom REST API in Salesforce and made it public via Salesforce Sites, allowing for public access to the API.Initially, I considered OAuth 2.0 as a way to validate the source of the requests, which brings me to my main question: although DocuSign Connect supports the Client Credentials Grant flow of OAuth 2.0, Salesforce does not. As a result, I abandoned OAuth 2.0 for validation.Instead, I implemented HMAC signature validation using the Connect Key, and Salesforce is now able to receive the requests.Is my understanding correct that OAuth 2.0 validation cannot be used with DocuSign Connect when the recipient is Salesforce?Reference: h

Docusign OAuth Invalid Grant with unexpected_origin_included

Morning, in my team we are trying to implement an integration with DocuSign and according to the documentation, we need to setup an OAuth process. In order to do so, the steps we’ve followed are:Create a developer account Go to “Integrations” → “Apps and Keys” and create an app there with a secret key and also the redirect URIs and CORS configuration. As it is the first try, we used “http://localhost:3000” everywhere. We followed this link from the documentation: https://developers.docusign.com/platform/auth/authcode/confidential-authcode-get-token/ We’ve implemented a redirection from our frontend to get an authCode as stated in the documentation by calling https://account-d.docusign.com/oauth/auth with response_type=code,scope=signature cors,client_id={OUR_CLIENT_ID} and redirect_uri=http://localhost:3000 Afterwards, we are doing a POST request through axios to https://account-d.docusign.com/oauth with the parameters stated in the documentation (a header with Authorization: Basic {CO

Envelopes GetDocument responds USER_AUTHENTICATION_FAILED

I’m using the SDK C# and when sending a request Envelopes::GetDocument (link) to get the documents, this fails with error:"errorCode":"USER_AUTHENTICATION_FAILED","message":"One or both of Username and Password are invalid. Invalid access token" All other API calls before calling GetDocument are passing OK - for example when calling Envelopes::listDocument (before the GetDocument) to get the list of documents, that returns succesfully. But then with same starting point GetDocument fails.We do checks for token validity etc. before calling these methods and only GetDocument respons with error. What could be the cause and what should we consider?

Webhook Production/Test

I’ve created a “demo” app under the primary credentials in which I’ve got a new process coded and working in the test environment up until the receiving of the signed document from docusign.Today in production we receive signed documents at a handler hosted by us (the creating/sending of envelopes today is done with a SOAP integration). This new integration is using the REST approach to create/send envelopes (again working in demo). I would like to test receiving these signed documents generated by the REST approach, but haven’t been able to find how to configure or even view our current webhook. It appears from what I’ve gathered that this is done at “https://apps-d.docusign.com/admin/connect”. I believe the reason I don’t see anything here on our production login is that our integration pre-dates much of what is available today.My question is I would like to add a webhook for this demo app under our primary login, is this possible? If so, where? If not, what is the approach Docusign
