Feature Request: Auto-populate Email Subject and Envelope Name with Uploaded Document Filename
I would like to submit a high-value product enhancement request regarding envelope/template creation efficiency.
Current Limitation:
Currently, when a user uploads a document (PDF/Word) into DocuSign, the Email Subject and Envelope Name default to a generic text or template name, requiring manual entry or copy-pasting of the exact filename every single time.
Proposed Enhancement:
Add an option or automated setting that dynamically populates the Email Subject / Envelope Name with the Uploaded Document's Filename (minus the file extension).
Why This is Necessary & Easy to Implement:
-
Technical Simplicity: Reading the metadata/string of an uploaded file's name and mapping it to the Email Subject string field is a straightforward capability.
-
High Efficiency & Time Saving: For engineering, construction (e.g., NCRs, RFIs, Submittals), legal, and compliance teams managing hundreds of documents daily, manually re-typing file names creates unnecessary friction.
-
Seamless Document Tracking: Automatic naming ensures that email notifications and dashboard records strictly match original document numbers without manual intervention.
Thank you for considering this request for your upcoming product roadmap!
