I need help with the POST request body for creating a DocuSign envelope. I want to create an envelope using a template and prefill custom fields. Here's my current request body:
{
"templateId": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
"templateRoles": [
{
"email": "email@gmail.com",
"name": "Recipient Name",
"roleName": "Signer 1"
}
],
"status": "sent",
"customFields": {
"textCustomFields": [
{
"name": "name",
"value": "john"
}
]
}
}
Is this the correct structure for the request body?

The structure of your request body for creating an envelope using a template appears to be mostly correct. However, the error message {"errorCode":"INVALID_CONTENT_TYPE","message":"Content Type specified is not supported."} indicates an issue with the HTTP headers rather than the JSON body.
For DocuSign API requests, you need to set the Content-Type header properly. The correct value for a JSON request body is: Content-Type: application/json
