I want to be able to update email of an envelope and resend in case where invalid or wrong email is inputted by the user.
I am using this endpoint:(PUT) [base_path]/restapi/v2.1/accounts/[accountId]/envelopes/[envelopeId]/recipients?resend_envelope=true

And this parameter: {
  "signers": :
    {
      "email": "<email>",
      "name": "<full_name>",
      "roleName": "<roleName>",
      "recipientId": "<recipientId>"
    }
  ]
}

After sending it, the email is modified and they receive the document to sign, but the position to sign disappears, how do i rectify this, i want the updated envelope to come with the signer tab.
 

Also when i change the email from an existing email that was sent to the document, the older email still has access to the document, i also want their access to be nullified.
 

Thanks

When you update the recipient with the UpdateRecipient API (https://developers.docusign.com/docs/esign-rest-api/reference/envelopes/enveloperecipients/update/), please make sure that you specify the correct recipientId that is to be updated. If the recipientId is different, the new recipient will be created instead. You can get the recipientId via listRecipients API (https://developers.docusign.com/docs/esign-rest-api/reference/envelopes/enveloperecipients/list/).

Once you update the recipient correctly, an email notification will be sent to the previous recipient, notifying them that they no longer have access.
