For many calls, you'll need the account number (int) or account id GUID. In the instruction below we'll show you where you can find it.
  1. In your account dashboard open the 'Apps and Keys' tab.
  1. In the top-left corner will be your App name with the account number (int).
  1. A little bit lower in the center will be account id CUID.

PLEASE NOTE! You can use either of the identifiers (account number or account ID), but NOT both in one call!
Now you can use all plugin options!

Use cases

Add multiple recipients
To add multiple entities as recipients, please change accordingly the JSON body within the plugin action "Create & Send Envelope". (screenshot here) The part of JSON body responsible for multiple recipients should look like this (example): { "recipients":{ "signers":[ { "email":"email@mail.com", "name":"name", "recipientId":1, "tabs":{ "signHereTabs":[ { "xPosition":".........." } ] } }, { "email":"email2@mail.com", "name":"name2", "recipientId":2, "tabs":{ "signHereTabs":[ { "xPosition":".........." } ] } } ] } }
To be sure that everything has been written right, please use the JSON validator services (for example: https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com)
