UrlRequired
Include

orhttps://
.
Team
Select your Team or leave empty to use your Personal account.
Try ItTeam
Optionally use a Team account when sending the SignRequest or leave empty to use your Personal account.
You have 2 options to create a SignRequest:
- Upload a File: Use a trigger that provides a File Object.
- Provide an URL: SignRequest will download the document from that location.
File
Option 1: Upload a File
PDF's are preferred. If you do not provide a File here you need to provide a url in 'File From Url' where SignRequest can download the file. Generally you'll want to use this if your trigger provides a File Object.
File From URL
Option 2: Provide an URL
When not using 'File' provide a url here where SignRequest can download the file. If the download location returns a content type of text/plain or text/html SignRequest will do its best to make a pdf out of it. This can be used if you want to dynamically create pdf documents from web pages without making a pdf yourself.
Sender Email
By default the Sender is the email address of the connected SignRequest account. When using a Team this may also be one of email addresses of Team members.
Who Needs to Sign?
By default only the signer(s) you add need to sign. If the Sender also needs to sign, choose 'Me & Others'.
SignRequest Name
By default we use the filename as the name of a SignRequest.
Custom SignRequest Email Subject
Generally you'll want to leave this empty as SignRequest generates one automatically.
Custom Message
A custom message to show in the SignRequest email. If left empty SignRequest will generate one for you.
Send Automatic Reminders?
Automatically remind signer(s) when the document hasn't been signed.
External ID
Your ID as a reference. Can be anything.
Signer EmailRequired
The email address of the signer. When multiple emails are added these signers will all have the same configuration and receive a SignRequest. When different configurations are required for separate signers please use the 'Advanced Signers Configuration' field.
Signer First Name
Signer Last Name
Does This Signer Need to Sign?
Set to 'no' if this signer only needs to receive a copy of the signed document.
Signer Needs to Approve Only?
Set to 'yes' if this Signer only needs to approve this document ('approve' button instead of signature).
Signing Order
By default all signers receive the SignRequest at the same time. If you want a signer to receive the SignRequest after another signer has signed increase the order level for that signer. E.g. if you have one signer with order 0 and two with order 1, the two with order 1 will get the SignRequest simultaneously when the signer with order 0 has signed (or approved). Generally useful when a document must first be approved internally before it goes to a customer.
Signer Language
Sets the language of the SignRequest emails. While signing the browser of the signer determines the language of the interface.
Force Language
To force the SignRequest browser interface to use the Signer Language set this to 'yes'. By default the browser language settings are used.
Mobile Phone Number to Verify
To enable Text Message Verification provide a mobile phone number including the country code.
