Hello Ideas team,

We advice all of our customer migrate to new send view as this document told:

https://www.docusign.com/blog/developers/esignature-rest-api-embedded-correct-view-updated?msockid=13eac2ad5d496fc10dc3d62c5c416ee9

and also can find the document:

https://developers.docusign.com/docs/esign-rest-api/reference/envelopes/envelopeviews/createsender/

we find the setting as below:

{
"returnUrl": "<url>", // URL required
"viewAccess": "envelope", // required
"settings": {
"startingScreen": "Prepare", // (default) or "Tagger"
"sendButtonAction": "send", // (default), "redirect"
"showBackButton": "true", // (default), "false"
"backButtonAction": "previousPage", // (default), "redirect"
"showHeaderActions": "true", // (default), "false"
"showDiscardAction": "true", // (default), "false"
"lockToken": token_value,
"recipientSettings": {
"showEditRecipients": "true", // (default), "false"
"showContactsList": "true" // (default), "false"
},
"documentSettings": {
"showEditDocuments": "true", // (def,ault), "false"
"showEditDocumentVisibility": "true" // (default), "false"
"showEditPages": "true", // (default), "false"
},
"taggerSettings": {
"paletteSections": "default", // (default), "none", "custom"
"paletteDefault": "custom" // "merge", "notary", "seals",
// "smartContracts", "annotations",
// "smartSections"
}
}
}
}

Now the customer want disable the send later button. maybe can a parameter like showSendLaterButton, default is true, and can change it to false. so the send later button can hide. becuase they embedded this view in their system, the workflow is control by their system, so no need send later. Now some people may make a mistake, and the process can't go down, stop, and have to modify and increase the workload. 

 

thanks

I have a use case for this as well, I want to show the sender view to allow a user to edit the envelope but not send it, I can do that except that because the “Send Later” option always appears if enabled on the account I cannot prevent them from using it.

Thanks for sharing this idea with us, ​@Hengfeng Ge. We’ve reviewed it and appreciate the thought behind it. At this time, we’re not planning to pursue this request, so we’ve marked it as parked. While it’s not on our current roadmap, ideas like yours help inform future direction if priorities change.

Thanks again for contributing your input.
