I have a fillable PDF rental application.  I created a new envelope template by uploading the PDF. The new template recognized all the form fields perfectly. I edited this template by making some of the fields required and others with rules. no issues there.  I now want to create a new webform based upon this new template. Results are problematic. Most of the webform is correct. but each field displays the field name and data label.  I do not want the data label imported and displayed.  There must be a way to set some webform property rules to stop this. I am hoping anyway that there is.  There are a lot of fields, and do change them individually seems impractical. I am very new to all this, so if this is worded poorly, I apologize.  

I would like to use custody transfer rules with Powerforms.  I want to have the same “offers privacy” of the envelopes appearing that they are sent from a generic email address on our domain, and I need the ability for the sending department group to be able to check on the envelope status and resend the envelopes.  If i understand how this works with templates, there is the ability to transfer envelopes “prior to first send” however, there is no mention of this working with Powerforms.  We use SSO so I do not want users logging into docusign with a generic domain account. Please let me know if there are any differences in functionality.  

Hello - We are currently signed up to a trial and as a real estate agency often need to send terms out to clients. We send the same document repeatedly but have to manually enter in all the required and optional fields throughout the document each time. How do we set these documents up to automatically generate these fields and is this option limited because we are currently on a trial? 

It appears that AI is now scanning documents and alerting the document owner when a document has the words “expiring” or “expiration” or perhaps even just finding dates and then adding a notification to the home page for the user that a document is expiring soon. This is actually not very helpful since I have documents that list details of an expiration date for material that is being used in production. The document is not expiring, but the notification gives the impression that it is. How do we turn off this functionality when it is not useful? 

Wondering how to automatically schedule a report to send to a party with a CSV attached. For example, sending an executed contract list monthly to the finance department. I dont see the schedule option when the report was created. 

I’d like to contact Docusign CEO Allan Thygesen directly or Docusign’s customer care team to address my issue as follows.   Let me explain the problem.   Docusign does a great job of trying to authenticate who you are with Truth Challenge questions (series of 3 questions).  Good.  Examples, what county did you live in when you owned a property, car you bought year, color etc.   Good. These questions protect us when signing docs.The problem is that when docusign challenge questions start asking questions about people whom I have no clue about beyond I know this person was the former owner of my house i currently live in that where the titles on our houses switched during this aquisition.  Then the challenge questions i failed “asking questions completely not relevant to a person i don’t know”, forces a reset and then reasking of the question. This is inefficient use of time on all sides.Docusigns algorithm for grabbing data from Credit bureaus is severely flawed.  About 1 out of each 3

Hi.In the documentation, I was able to find a complete list of statuses with which a user’s work with the Recipient View can end (and which is subsequently passed as a query parameter to the specified RedirectUrl):https://developers.docusign.com/docs/esign-rest-api/reference/envelopes/envelopeviews/createrecipient/At the same time, I can’t find similar information anywhere for the Sender View:https://developers.docusign.com/docs/esign-rest-api/reference/envelopes/envelopeviews/createsender/ Please advise where I can find the list or maybe provide the full list itself.Thanks in advance!

Hi, I am developing an interface from SAP C4C (Sales Cloud) which brings in Sales quote data for e-signature. There is a standard connector available in Integration suite for authenticating and perform function calls to Docusign. Can someone help me with what function/API to call and if there is a sequence of APIs I need to call for this requirement

I have a document that needs to be signed by many different people. Some of them have already signed, but now one person has declined and suggested another person to sign. Can I change individual persons without having to resend the document to everyone?

Dear DocuSign Support,I am a DocuSign user with a 1,000-envelope plan, and since yesterday I have been completely unable to send any document for signature. This issue is seriously disrupting my work and causing significant professional and financial harm, as I am unable to complete several urgent closings.It is also impossible to create a support ticket or contact DocuSign directly through the usual channels, which makes the situation even more critical.Please treat this matter as urgent and provide immediate assistance so that my account can be restored to full functionality.Best regards, 

I am getting an error message when trying to send a document for signing. It’s quite urgent that I send it too. Account does not have permission to set Allow Comments. I had the free version, upgraded to the personal plan monthly hoping this would fix it and it hasn’t. I assume I am the admin but can’t see anything allowing me to change a setting to allow comments anywhere. I created the envelope from scratch and didn’t use a template. I need to send this ASAP so please help.Thanks

I have a template that I used to create a web form.  The webform works as expected.  Later I needed to change the validation of three text fields to date format.  1st Question - are dates allowed as validation for text fields in webforms?  (assuming yes)Here is how I changed the validation of the field:Edit web form. Edit templates fields. Changed validation of the desired field to date with the default mask. Save & CloseNow the link to the field is broken. When I View template connections I see:Under the WEB FORM FIELD column “--connect web form field-- Under Template field the name of the field I changed which in this case is Incident date.Clicking on the --connect web form field-- doesn’t do anything.  I CAN type the API reference name, which is Incident_date into the --connect web form field--  but when I click Save nothing changes.  This isn’t the first time I wasn’t able to reconnect a broken field.  What am I doing wrong?  The only way I know to fix this is to start from scr

Hi, we have added a document and when we go to add merge fields we get a, ‘Attempt to de-reference a null object’.  The message disappears and then we can add merge fields. We then go to add the merge fields fields into the document and receive a ‘Save Error: Some Fields may be out of Sync Error’. We have disconnected as suggested in related articles but that did not solve the issue. Any other suggestions?Thanks

Hello all,I work in the public sector for Olmsted County, MN, USA.  We are trying to raise empathy awareness with our staff about electronic accessibility requirements and compliance.  Is there or could someone create a video showing someone filling out and signing a Docusign form using a screen reader? Even better, a “bad” experience because the form wasn’t created properly, and an “ideal” experience where the source document was built using Style Headings, Numbered/Bulleted lists, and the form has meaningful data labels and tool tips.I’m in the process of learning how to use a screen reader but I am not proficient enough to create my own demonstration.  I am also curious, is the screen reader able to see the content of the document or just the fields? I noticed that hyperlinks in a Word Document are removed (flattened?) after the document is uploaded into an envelope/template.  Which in a way makes sense since the purpose of Docusign is to fill out and sign a form, not use the form a

When I want to send a document to sign, I get this message "Account does not have permission to set Allow Comments" and I can't send it.

Hi, Please refer to the attached screenshot.The red circled indicates where the original scroll bar was.When you click on the scroll bar to move down the document, the standard fields on the right hand side will stay so you can drag the relevant to the document. Since last week, it suddenly went missing. I have logged a ticket with the Docusign Engineering team yesterday to resolve this bug and I have not heard anything yet. This is business critical as I cannot fulfill my daily work functions. Anyone encountered this before? Or how can I escalate this further? Thank you. 

DocuSign support is terrible. Not only is the response time 24 hours from each posted query, but phone support agents barely speak English, and when they can't figure out the answer to your problem after putting you on hold, they disconnect the call. This has happened twice now on a single support case (still unresolved)-- and the support agents never call you back, even though they have my phone number, so it's not a call reception or other phone issue. Is there someone higher up at DocuSign who is in charge of DocuSign Support, and what is their contact info?

I need help with troubleshooting an envelope. A signer was redirected to https://authentication.idnow.de/docusign/requestsignature to request a digital signature. But was stuck. I did not correct my envelope whatsoever and there is no error prompted from me (the sender). 

I'm suddenly getting 3-5 phishing emails a week from the docusign.net domain and none of the standard reporting email addresses like abuse@ or admin@ work. They reject my email, and I can’t find any reporting information on their FAQ page.  I guess I'm left with the choice of blocking the domain? Why do they make is difficult to contact support or report phishing? Keeping customers at arms length is bad practice. Edit:  Spam@docusign.com.  What a waste of my time finding that.  Edit 2:  Spam@… blocked my email as spam.  This is BS. Going to block the domain on the server.  

How i can sign a document offline? When i have at longer time no connections.

I have a completed docusign PDFI have no idea who it is from or what it is about and I can't access the envelope. Need to make sure no one is trying to use my account to sign documents
