DocuSign

Quickly and easily create, manage, and send eSignatures using the new DocuSign connected system. DocuSign envelopes can contain one or more documents, the fields in the document, recipient info, delivery progress, sender information, security, and more.

Properties

Two forms of authentication are available for DocuSign: Basic Authentication (single system login) and Authorization Code Grant (per user).

Basic Authentication

Uses the DocuSign Legacy Header Authentication Method, which requires a single DocuSign user's credentials to authenticate. Please see DocuSign documentation for more details.

In addition to the common properties, a DocuSign Legacy Header has the following properties:

Field Description
Authentication Information The following authentication information can be found in the DocuSign Admin site. From your DocuSign instance, go to the Admin site. Then click Accounts and select your account to get started.
Instance URL This URL is used to configure your integration object and when executing your operations. For example: https://demo.docusign.net
API Account ID To find the API Account ID, go to the Account screen in DocuSign. Under Integrations, click API and Keys.
API Username The username used to sign into the provided DocuSign instance. To find the API Username, go to the Account screen in DocuSign. Under Users And Groups, click Users and select a user.
Password The password used to sign into the provided DocuSign instance.
Integration Key To find the Integration Key, go to the Account screen in DocuSign. Under Integrations, click API and Keys and select your App Name.

Authorization Code Grant

Uses the DocuSign OAuth 2.0 Authentication Method, where each Appian user will be required to log in to their DocuSign account to authenticate. You must provide users a way to authenticate using OAuth 2.0. Please see DocuSign documentation for more details.

In addition to the common properties, a DocuSign Authorization Code Grant has the following properties:

Field Description
Authentication Information The following authentication information can be found in the API and Keys page for your app. From your DocuSign instance, go to the Admin site. Then click Accounts and select your account. From the Account screen, under Integrations, select API and Keys and select your App Name.
Redirect URL Each connected system provides a callback URL that must be added to your DocuSign environment. From the Account screen, under Integrations, select API and Keys and select your App Name. Under Additional settings, add the Redirect URI.
Instance URL This URL is used to configure your integration object and when executing your operations. For example: https://demo.docusign.net
API Account ID To find the API Account ID, go to the Account screen in DocuSign. Under Integrations, click API and Keys.
Integration Key To find the API Username, go to the Account screen in Docusign. Under Users And Groups, click Users and select a user.
Secret Key From the API and Keys page for your app, under Authentication, select Authorization Code Grant and click ADD SECRET KEY.
DocuSign Environment This is either DocuSign Development, https://account-d.docusign.com, or Production, https://account.docusign.com.

Click AUTHORIZE to use the provided configuration information to authorize the designer in a new window. See OAuth 2.0: Authorization Code Grant for more details.
