EnvelopeRecipients Resource

View as Markdown

The EnvelopeRecipients resource allows you manage the recipients of an envelope. There are seven recipient types. All types share a core set of parameters. Some recipient types have additional parameters.

Recipient typeDescription
AgentsAn agent recipient can add name and email information for recipients that appear after the agent in routing order.
Carbon CopiesCarbon copy recipients get a copy of the envelope but don’t need to sign, initial, date or add information to any of the documents. This type of recipient can be used in any routing order. Carbon copy recipients receive their copy of the envelope when the envelope reaches the recipient’s order in the process flow and when the envelope is completed.
Certified DeliveriesCertified delivery recipients must receive the completed documents for the envelope to be completed. However, they don’t need to sign, initial, date or add information to any of the documents.
EditorsEditors have the same management and access rights for the envelope as the sender. They can make changes to the envelope as if they were using the Advanced Correct feature. This recipient can add name and email information, add or change the routing order and set authentication options for the remaining recipients. Additionally, this recipient can edit signature/initial tabs and data fields for the remaining recipients. The recipient must have a DocuSign account to be an editor.
In-Person SignersAn in-person recipient is a DocuSign user, acting as a Signing Host, who is in the same physical location as the signer.
IntermediariesAn intermediary is a recipient who can, but is not required to, add name and email information for recipients at the same or subsequent level in the routing order, unless subsequent agents, editors or intermediaries are added.
SealsAn electronic seal recipient represents a legal person. Electronic seals can be used by organizations and governments to show evidence of origin and integrity of documents.
SignersA signer is a recipient who must sign, initial, date, or add data to form fields on the documents in the envelope.

Not all recipients are are available to all account types. Review your account plan to determine which recipient types are available to you. All recipient types are available in the Demo environment.

Core Recipient Parameters

All recipients, regardless of type, have the same common parameters. The following table contains the descriptions for the core properties for all recipient types.

NameRequiredSchema TypeDescription
emailYesEmailEmail of the recipient. Notification will be sent to this email id. Maximum Length: 100 characters.
nameYesStringFull legal name of the recipient. Maximum Length: 100 characters.
accessCodeNoStringThis optional element specifies the access code a recipient has to enter to validate the identity. Maximum Length: 50 characters.
addAccessCodeToEmailNoBooleanThis optional attribute indicates that the access code is added to the email sent to the recipient; this nullifies the Security measure of Access Code on the recipient.
clientUserIdNoStringThis specifies whether the recipient is embedded or remote.

If the clientUserId property is not null then the recipient is embedded. Note that if the ClientUserId property is set and either SignerMustHaveAccount or SignerMustLoginToSign property of the account settings is set to true, an error is generated on sending.
embeddedRecipientStartURLNoStringThis is a sender provided valid URL string for redirecting an embedded recipient. When using this option, the embedded recipient still receives an email from DocuSign, just as a remote recipient would, but when the document link in the email is clicked the recipient is redirected, through DocuSign, to this URL to complete their actions. When routing to the URL, it is up to the sender’s system (the server responding to the URL) to then request a recipient token to launch a signing session.

If the value SIGN_AT_DOCUSIGN is used for this node, the recipient is directed to an embedded signing or viewing process directly at DocuSign. The signing or viewing action is initiated by the DocuSign system and the transaction activity and Certificate of Completion records will reflect this. In all other ways the process is identical to an embedded signing or viewing operation that would be launched by any partner.

It is important to remember that in a typical embedded workflow the authentication of an embedded recipient is the responsibility of the sending application and DocuSign expects that senders will follow their own process for establishing the recipient’s identity. In this workflow the recipient goes through the sending application before the embedded signing or viewing process in initiated. However, when the sending application sets the EmbeddedRecipientStartURL property to SIGN_AT_DOCUSIGN, the recipient goes directly to the embedded signing or viewing process bypassing the sending application and any authentication steps the sending application would use. In this case, DocuSign recommends that one of the normal DocuSign authentication features (Access Code, Phone Authentication, SMS Authentication, etc.) be used to verify the identity of the recipient.

If the clientUserId property is NOT set and the embeddedRecipientStartURL property is set, DocuSign ignores the redirect URL and launch the standard signing process for the email recipient. Information can be appended to the embeddedRecipientStartURL property using merge fields. The available merge fields items are: envelopeId, recipientId, recipientName, recipientEmail, and customFields. The customFields must be part of the recipient or envelope. The merge fields are enclosed in double brackets.

Example: http://senderHost/[[mergeField1]]/ beginSigningSession? [[mergeField2]]&[[mergeField3]]
customFieldsNocustomFieldAn optional array of strings that allows the sender to provide custom data about the recipient. This information is returned in the envelope status but otherwise not used by DocuSign. String customField properties have a maximum length of 100 characters.
emailNotificationNoemailNotificationAn optional complex type that has information for setting the language for the recipient’s email information. It is composed of three elements:

emailBody: a string with the email message sent to the recipient. Maximum Length: 10000 characters.

emailSubject: a string with the subject of the email sent to the recipient. Maximum Length: 100 characters.

supportedLanguage: The simple type enumeration of the language used. The supported languages, with the language value shown in parenthesis, are: Arabic (ar), Bahasa Indonesia (id), Bahasa Melayu (ms) Bulgarian (bg), Czech (cs), Chinese Simplified (zh_CN), Chinese Traditional (zh_TW), Croatian (hr), Danish (da), Dutch (nl), English US (en), English UK (en_GB), Estonian (et), Farsi (fa), Finnish (fi), French (fr), French Canada (fr_CA), German (de), Greek (el), Hebrew (he), Hindi (hi), Hungarian (hu), Italian (it), Japanese (ja), Korean (ko), Latvian (lv), Lithuanian (lt), Norwegian (no), Polish (pl), Portuguese (pt), Portuguese Brazil (pt_BR), Romanian (ro),Russian (ru), Serbian (sr), Slovak (sk), Slovenian (sl), Spanish (es),Spanish Latin America (es_MX), Swedish (sv), Thai (th), Turkish (tr), Ukrainian (uk) and Vietnamese (vi).

IMPORTANT: If this is enabled for one recipient, it overrides the Envelope Subject and EmailBlurb property settings. Also, you must set the emailNotification property for all recipients.
excludedDocumentsNoArray of StringsSpecifies the documents that are not visible to this recipient. Document Visibility must be enabled for the account and the enforceSignerVisibility property must be set to true for the envelope to use this.

When the enforceSignerVisibility property is set to true, documents with tabs can only be viewed by signers that have a tab on that document. Recipients that have an administrative role (Agent, Editor, or Intermediaries) or informational role (Certified Deliveries or Carbon Copies) can always see all the documents in an envelope, unless they are specifically excluded using this setting when an envelope is sent. Documents that do not have tabs are always visible to all recipients, unless they are specifically excluded using this setting when an envelope is sent.
idCheckConfigurationNameNoStringSpecifies authentication check by name. The names used here must be the same as the authentication type names used by the account (these name can also be found in the web console sending interface in the Identify list for a recipient). This overrides any default authentication setting.

Example: Your account has ID Check and SMS Authentication available and in the web console Identify list these appear as ‘ID Check ′and′SMSAuth' and 'SMS Auth ’. To use ID check in an envelope, the idCheckConfigurationName property must be set to ID Check $. To use SMS, it must be set to SMS Auth $ and you must add phone number information to the smsAuthentication node.
iDCheckInformationInputNoIdCheckInformationInputThis complex element contains input information related to a recipient ID check. It can include the following information.

addressInformationInput: Used to set recipient address information and consists of:

addressInformation: consists of six elements, with street2 and zipPlus4 being optional. The elements are: street1, street2, city, state, zip, zipPlus4. The maximum number of characters in each element are: street1/street2 = 150 characters, city = 50 characters, state = 2 characters, and zip/zipPlus4 = 20 characters.

displayLevelCode: Specifies the display level for the recipient. Values are: ReadOnly, Editable, or DoNotDisplay.

receiveInResponse: A Boolean element that specifies if the information needs to be returned in the response.

ssn9InformationInput: Used to set the recipient’s SSN information. Note that the ssn9 information can never be returned in the response. The ssn9 input consists of:

ssn9: Specifies the recipient’s SSN.

displayLevelCode: Specifies the display level for the recipient. Values are: ReadOnly, Editable, or DoNotDisplay.
inheritEmailNotificationConfigurationNoBooleanOptional element. If true and the envelope recipient creates a DocuSign account after signing, the Manage Account Email Notification settings are used as the default settings for the recipient’s account.
noteNoStringA note that is unique to this recipient. This note is sent to the recipient via the signing email. The note displays in the signing UI near the upper left corner of the document on the signing screen. Maximum Length: 1000 characters.

Intermediaries Recipient

An intermediary is a recipient who can, but is not required to, add name and email information for recipients at the same or subsequent level in the routing order, unless subsequent agents, editors or intermediaries are added.

In addition to the core parameters, this type adds the following parameters.

NameRequiredSchema TypeDescription
canEditRecipientEmailsNoBooleanOptional element. When set to true, the Agents Recipient associated with this Recipient can change the Recipient’s pre-populated Email address. This element is only active if enabled for the account.

Seals Recipient

An electronic seal recipient is not a natural but a legal person. Electronic Seals can be used by organizations and governments to show evidence of origin and integrity of documents. Even though electronic seals can be represented by a tab in a document, they do not require user interaction and apply automatically in the order specified by the sender. The sender is therefore the person authorizing usage of the electronic seal in the flow. Electronic seal recipients rely on a subset of core properties. They also add a new recipientSignatureProviders parameter.

NameRequiredSchema TypeDescription
recipientIdYesStringIndicates the unique ID of the applied electronic seal.
routingOrderNo (default: 1)StringSpecifies the routing order of the electronic seal in the envelope. The routing order assigned to your electronic seal cannot be shared with another recipient. It is recommended that you set a routing order for your electronic seals..
recipientSignatureProvidersYesStringIndicates which electronic seal to apply on documents when creating an envelope.

By default, Electronic Seals apply on all documents in an envelope. However, the sealDocumentsWithTabsOnly property (see recipientSignatureProvider) allows you to seal only documents that have signHere tabs set for the Electronic Seal recipients.
