Signature replicationDuplicate

Hello, I would like a way for a signatory to make a single signature, automatically replicating that same action across multiple envelopes for mass mailings. At our institution, directors sign many documents, which ends up taking up a lot of their time. Currently, we have about 477 documents to sign. Replication would make our daily work easier. Would this improvement be possible?

Envelope-level access code + send the code in a separate DocuSign emailIdea Submitted

Today, Access Codes are set per recipient, which gets painful when an envelope has multiple recipients (repetitive setup, easy to miss someone, hard to manage).Request:Add an envelope-level option: “Require access code for this envelope” → automatically applies to all recipients. Add an option to send the access code in a separate DocuSign system email, so it’s not included in the envelope invitation/email thread (helps when invitations get forwarded).This would reduce admin effort, improve consistency, and strengthen real-world security.

Sender Pre-fill Custom FieldsIdea Submitted

I want to be able to create custom text fields (addresses of property’s) so that they can be selected as required into a Sender pre-fill text box. Currently this is not possible under the Sender Prefill “user” as far as I can see. I can only create them under my own name. If this is possible I would be delighted to hear how to do this. If not, DocuSign developers can you get this implemented asap. Thanks Richard

Webform notifications when a form is filled outIdea Submitted

The inability to get an email notification when a Public webform (created from scratch) is filled out is mind boggling. Like if there is a public webform people want to know when it’s been completed. I actually created 2 cases to get help with this because I didn’t believe the first support person when I was told it wasn’t possible. just to be clearI created a webform from scratch. It’s public facing, and does not require a signature. when it’s filled out by a customer there is now way for me to get a notification. unbelievable

Web Form Subject Limited to 100 Characters - Increase to 225 CharactersDuplicate

The Web Form Subject is limited to 100 characters. Please increase this option to 225 characters in order to accommodate a formula to pull information from the form as the subject as exampled below. I would like to have the ability to ender the following as my web form subject:[[ECF:Travel Start Date]]_[[ECF:Initiator_UserName]]_NTA Form_[[ECF:Name of Travel Destination]]_[ECF:Destination City Name]]_[[ECF:Destination State Abbreviation]]The results would be as follows:YYYYMMDD_abcdefg_hijklmnopq_NTA Form_Docusign_Web_Form_Conference_San_Diego_CA012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890The above is 80 characters which would fit in the allotted 100-character subject limit.The character limit could be longer based in the information filled but I cannot see it being longer than 225 characters.Thank you for taking the time to read this suggestion for improvement

Dynamic brand logo display on a docusign templateIdea Submitted

Problem:We currently work with six banks, each having its own MPA PDF format. Additionally, we have 200+ partners whose MPAs follow the same structure and mapping, but each partner requires different header and footer branding. Because of this variability, adding static headers and footers in the source Word file is not feasible. Maintaining over 200 partner–bank combinations as separate documents is not scalable and would be extremely difficult to manage in real time. Previously, we only had five banks and four partners (20 combinations), which was manageable. Now, with a significantly larger set, we require the ability to insert header/footer images dynamically—similar to how we already populate text using text tabs.Our configuration:We are using DocuSign Envelope Templates in a partially customized setup. Envelope creation is triggered via ApexToolkit because some related objects are not directly connected to Salesforce Contract records.Idea:We need the capability to dynamically insert header and footer images into the document at runtime through the API, similar to the way dynamic text tabs or signature tabs are currently supported.

Fixing inefficiencies in Agreement Manager - (formerly Navigator) Agreement TaggingIdea Submitted

I am working on editing the labels to some of my documents in the Miscellaneous agreement type in Agreement Manager - (formerly Navigator), specifically to update the agreement type. I can click on documents by checking the box next to file name, then going to "edit" and editing the agreement type. However, I have noticed some inefficiencies in this process: (1) I can only select 50 agreements at a time to update the "agreement type" using the "edit" function. (2) When I click "save' and then "Update agreement type," the Docusign page takes me back to item 1, page 1 of the Miscellaneous folder, not where I left off in the Miscellaneous folder, and (3) there is no way to go to a later item in the Miscellaneous folder besides clicking the forward arrow on the bottom of the table. For example, I can't view or go to "items 950-1000". These fixes would make it more efficient to update agreement type of document (or any other labels): (1) unlimited number of agreements to edit/relabel at one time, (2) Having Docusign take you back to the page you previously were on when you click “save,” not to the beginning of the folder, and (3) Allowing users to select a range of document numbers to go to without just relying on the arrow.

Enforce accessibility standards for brand palettesIdea Submitted

Due to how you’ve incorporated my company’s brand palette, the ‘Start’ button to create a PowerForm is almost completely invisible. I tried Ctrl+F on the page to find ‘New’ or ‘Create,’ which obviously didn’t work, so I had to consult your documentation to find the name of the button before using Ctrl+F ‘start’ to finally locate it. The same goes for other key action buttons on the site - ‘cancel’ looks like the only enabled button, not ‘Ok’. This is a huge accessibility issue, and just bad UX. It should be straightforward to support a customer's brand color palette while still enforcing accessibility standards. Our brand palette contains many colors that meet those standards, and it should be fairly trivial to auto-reject incompatible colors and request that the admin select a replacement color from the palette. Or even better, auto-select more appropriate alternatives for them.

correct an envelope option only shows recipient's view - I need my view (sender) to correct fields I enteredIdea Submitted

trouble ticket opened because there was no “correct” option per detailed instructions on how to correct an envelope sent but not yet signed by recipient. once tech support updated Docusign to show me the “correct” option, it only showed the recipient’s view to correct…..I need to see my view - the sender’s - to correct some fields I input…… tech support said this was not an option...l I need this option, otherwise I have to delete the envelope, RETYPE alllllll the fields again, advise the recipient that I have to delete the first envelope and send a NEW one HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPP I really don’t understand why I can’t correct my fields!!!!!!!

Transfer completed document to a different user, rather than the sender.Idea Submitted

I need User 1 to create a specific envelope and send out, however I need the completed document to go to User 2 only as the responses within the document will be confidential, so I do not want the completed document returned to User 1. Also, this is for one specific document only, I do not want this to be a general setting for all documents that User 1 sends, only for this specific document or template.

Stickers for fields in scroll barIdea Submitted

It would be much more helpful to have the sticker labels showing the fields you have on pages in the two vertical scrollbars as well as the page preview vertical scroll section (i.e., on the page where you add the fields for a document before sending an envelope).

Add Important Notes / Instructions in a bold block on the template pageIdea Submitted

We are a large firm that uses DocuSign that goes both to the the client and then another partner/vendor. Each one works slightly differently.We use Templates when we can, but it would be great to have an "Important Notes/Instructions" field directly within the template (not the PDF, but for the DocuSign user creating the envelope) that would include something like "Client Sign, but then you must download and upload to this site" or "All data submits directly to vendor, no manual steps needed" that would stand out to the user.In an ideal scenario, I'd love a pop-up with important information when someone chooses to use a template, but just having a section before the signer details would be helpful. Thanks for your time. Here is a simple mockup of my suggestion: Template Instructions Sample Mockup

I would need DocuSign to fix the bug which causes file names to have an extra period (.) in the file name upon completion at time of downloadDuplicate

Request to Restore Previous Filename BehaviorWe are requesting that DocuSign address the filename normalization changes introduced in the February 10 platform update. This update removes periods and certain special characters from filenames during download, which breaks our automation and validation processes that rely on exact filename preservation.Because our workflows are tied to strict auditability, this change also creates compliance risks for our Part 11–regulated processes, where filename integrity is part of our documented controls.ZIP downloads are not an option in our environment, so the impact is immediate and operational.We are requesting one of the following: Restoration of the previous filename behavior, or A configurable option to disable filename normalization during download. At this time, the only workaround is modifying filenames before sending them to DocuSign, which is not feasible for our validated workflows.

Preserve Original File Name Formatting (Including Periods) When Downloading Completed EnvelopesIdea Submitted

Currently, when downloading a completed envelope, the system automatically modifies the original file name by altering or removing periods (.) included within the document name. While this behavior may be intended to comply with system file-naming standards, it impacts organizations that intentionally use periods as part of their structured file-naming conventions, particularly for version control (e.g., v1.0, v2.1, etc.). We request an enhancement that preserves the original file name formatting upon download, including periods within the file name (excluding the file extension). Maintaining the exact file name would help ensure consistency across document management systems, prevent version-tracking discrepancies, and reduce the need for manual renaming after download.

Having the ability to turn off the pop-up hintsIdea Submitted

Hello - I use Docusign multiple times in a day sometimes and each time I am sending out a document it will pop up with the hints or ideas. It would be very nice to be able to turn this feature off. It becomes quite cumbersome to have to do this repeatedly.

All Comments Downloaded with History AutomaticallyParked

We need the ability for all comments to download with the signed documents at the place they were submitted, or at least the “Comment History” to be available to more than just the sender/signer. For instance if one signer is a group, if one person signs and another in the same group needs to review the documents at a later date for quality control, they can not see the comments because they were not an original signer even though they were in the signing group. As a bank, we need to be able to see all comments by all parties, all the time. I found other questions about this in the community, so I know other fields also need this ability.

Template level access to Attach documents to a completion emailIdea Submitted

The "Attach documents to completion email" setting is typically managed at the account or user level, not directly on individual templates. This means when enabled, it applies to all envelopes sent from the account or by users with that setting. Can we allow this setting to be available at a template level

Numeric Field AlignmentIdea Submitted

Number fields should automatically be right-aligned (or at least have that option) - it’s standard practice and helps create tables, columns, etc. Otherwise it’s a real hassle to get a table to look correct.

Mass mailings: more options for personalisationIdea Submitted

Currently, when sending mass mailings, it is only possible to personalise attachments created using a Word template.It is not possible to personalise the subject line and body text of the email being sent.It would be useful if the fields from the CSV import could also be used here. That way, for example, the sender of the document could be identified even in an inbox containing replies.Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

Return the user interface for sent envelopes so recipients and their message are viewed on the same pageIdea Submitted

Until the past few months, the prior interface allowed users to view the recipients and the transmittal message on the same page after a DocuSign envelope was sent. It was easy to print to pdf and save to our firm’s document management system. The current user interface splits it between Recipients and Details. The text and graphic of the sent documents are so much larger and only appear on the first page. Just yesterday, I sent a DocuSign envelope to three recipients (one signer and two cc’s). When printing the user interface page, only the names and email addresses of the cc’s appeared -- not the signer. Further, the message was on a different page. It’s completely worthless for showing proof to others (who don’t have access to my DocuSign account) that I sent an envelope for signing. I have to do a screenshot to get all of the info to appear. Why was the interface changed to provide less information than before?
