Question

"The envelope allowance for the account has been exceeded." in a developer account

I have a developer account which I use to test our Salesforce integration with. I recently started getting the error message “The envelope allowance for the account has been exceeded.” I was under the impression that developer/sandbox accounts did not have such limit but apparently I was wrong. When does this reset or is it possible to increase it?

Yes, as the document told there are no limit for the developer account:

https://support.docusign.com/s/articles/What-are-my-options-for-a-DocuSign-Trial-account?language=en_US&rsc_301.

 

how many envelopes that you send in one months. As I remember my clients test performance of create Envelope, they meet the limit for developer account last year. then we create case with support team and told what the client want to do than support change the limit. but I can’t find the email.

Hi ​@Alejandro.Ramos 

I am also facing this issue and it allows only 3 envelopes per developer account, which is too low. 

I have tried to log a case with the link above, however it is not allowing login to log a case with my developer account.

Thanks in advance,

Rimshad
