Hello, fellow developers! I hope you’re all healthy and safe and that you are getting enough sleep. I know that we, the tech community, are not necessarily at the frontline of the COVID-19 fight, but we can help. Many organizations are scrambling to move from processes that require physical presence to ones conducted remotely online. The good news is that DocuSign APIs can help you develop applications that can further assist others in this transition.
 

In this issue of the DocuSign developer newsletter, we’re going to tell you about technologies like eNotary and PowerForms that can be used to build integrations that allow for remote business processes such as applying for a Small Business Administration (SBA) loan. We also have some upcoming online events that will help you get up to speed quickly about our technologies and how to use them to build solutions for your own COVID-19 scenario. This issue also includes a very useful article about troubleshooting some common problems with authenticating into the DocuSign APIs once you go-live and run your integration in production. Lastly, and very important to me personally, is the launch of our new sample application focused on the education field: MyUni. Read all about it, and please, feel free to reach out and connect with me by replying to this email.
