Can I use the API to bulk assign a CEO-style signature to multiple users?

Hi all,

I have a use case that involves multiple users signing documents using the CEO's name and signature style.
For example, there are about 10 department managers who sometimes need to sign contracts on behalf of the CEO.

Instead of having each manager manually set up the CEO's signature in their own account (which would be time-consuming), I’d like to use the API to configure the CEO's name and signature image for all of them in bulk.

 

My goals are:

Apply a standardized CEO-style signature to all relevant users.

Automate this via the DocuSign API (so no manual configuration per user).

 

My questions:

Is it possible to programmatically assign a specific signature (name and image) to multiple users?

Is there an API method to do this in bulk?

Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions!

Thank you for contacting Docusign Customer Support. 

At this time our API does not have a process to set/save a signature.

No matter what type the Signature is, The legal responsibility for this envelope is still the signatory, not the name shown in the signature, which is a business habit As long as the signatory is authorized offline, he can sign his own name, the same legal effect.
