Hello @Maycio
Thank you for reaching out, and a warm welcome to the Docusign Community! I understand navigating Docusign Web Forms can feel a bit overwhelming, so let me clarify the best approach for your use case.
There are two types of Web Forms:
1. Stand-alone Web Forms – independent forms used only for data collection, not tied to an eSignature template.
2. Web Forms imported from an eSignature Template – a combination of a form (for collecting data) and an envelope for signature.
The fields below are currently not supported with the Web Forms (standalone) form-filling experience, but can be used in the signing process (imported from an eSignature template).
- Signature Field
- Initial
- Stamp
- Date signed
- Name
- Email
- Company
- Title
- Payment
- Formula
- Drawing
- Currency and Number Field
- Note
- Approve
- Decline
For your use case, where you need to collect data, get documents signed, create an eSignature template and then import it into a Web Form, is indeed the recommended approach. Let me clarify this process for you:
First, you'll create an eSignature template in Docusign with the necessary fields, such as Signature and Date Signed. Next, you'll import this template into a Web Form and create a form that can collect Company Name, address, etc., using text fields or other supported fields. After activating the Webform, you will have a copy of the URL to share with your Sales Partner.
The signer's experience would be that, after they fill out the form, they will be routed to an envelope signing session for signature.
