How to manually specify the signing location in a file through API?

Question

Hello everyone! I have a question. I want to send an envelope to the signatory through the CRM system. The documents inside the envelope are different every time, so I cannot use the templates in docusign or fix the signature position in the document. What I want is to manually specify the signing location in the file every time it is sent. How can this requirement be implemented?

Hello @Shawn ZhaoThanks for contacting DocuSign support.I recommend using Anchor String:Anchor Tags:Consider using Anchor Tags instead of absolute positioning. These link SignHere tabs to specific text strings in your PDF. This eliminates the need for precise coordinate calculations and adapts better to potential rendering variations.Here you will find more information about it:https://developers.docusign.com/docs/esign-rest-api/esign101/concepts/tabs/auto-place/And here you will find an example how to do it:https://developers.docusign.com/docs/esign-rest-api/how-to/request-signature-email-remote/Regards,Eric | Docusign
