Date Signed In REST API

Question

we have a requirement to auto populate the date signed field with the date and time stamp when the user has signed the document. Please let us know how do we do this using the REST API for creating and sending the Envelope.

we see that there is a DateSigned tab on the API, but it requires us to provide a X and Y position of the date Signed field. We are not sure of the X and Y positions of the date signed field on each document which we send. Can you please let us know if there is anything better than this field to use

That is the correct field. However, there are different ways to place it on a document. X/Y/Page coordinates is one, but if you have documents that vary in length, anchor text is a better approach. Many customers include white text in the document that is unique to use.
