I have signer and witness. When signer starts signing, he gets popup window to enter witness information.

The Envelope has Witness name and email populated.

Q1. How to do this if I don’t have Witness info to populate envelope?

Q2. How to do this if I don’t have Second Signer info to populate envelope?

I found this:

Is it possible for the signer to assign someone as a witness? | Community (docusign.com)

The reference link is dead, however.

So not sure what to do with Agent.

Working in C#.

I forgot to mention. This is for FocusedView flow. First Signer should sign on Web page and enter data for Second One.


Hi Ziggy,

You can create a witness with no Name or Email and the Signer will be prompted to enter the witness information.

For example:
 

{
"status": "sent",
"emailSubject": "Sign Me",
"recipients": {
"signers":
{
"email": "email@gmail.com",
"name": "Troy W",
"recipientId": "1",
"clientUserId": "123",
"routingOrder": "1",
"tabs": {
"signHereTabs":
{
"documentId": "1",
"pageNumber": "1",
"recipientId": "1",
"xPosition": "100",
"yPosition": "150"
}
]
}
}
],
"witnesses":
{
"name": "",
"email": "",
"roleName": "Witness",
"routingOrder": "1",
"witnessFor": "1",
"recipientId": "2",
"tabs": {
"signHereTabs":
{
"documentId": "1",
"pageNumber": "1",
"recipientId": "2",
"xPosition": "200",
"yPosition": "150"
}
]
}
}
]
},
"documents":
{
"documentId": "1",
"name": "contract.pdf",
"documentBase64": "xxxx"
}
]
}

This is great. Is the same possible for Unknown Second Signer not Witness for FocusedView flow?
