Introduction


Info

REST API /v3 and /v4 DEPRECATION: The 23.76 (published March 2024) will be the last LTS version that includes these API versions. By early June 2024, the REST API routes to v3/v4 will be deactivated on DEMO. Early December 2024, the REST API routes to v3/v4 will be removed from feature stream releases. Note that there is no date communicated yet to discontinue REST APIv5 (and where v5 refers to v4 routes, these will still remain); however we recommend to use the /v6 API specification already.

Introduction

String and array objects are validated. If hovering over an object in the model section on e.g. https://demo.esignanywhere.net/Api/swagger/ui/index you can see which validation is performed. In the following sample the validation for the Documents array is such that at least one document must be added and maximum of 50 documents are allowed.

Image RemovedModel Items LimitationImage Added

For string objects, the length is validated. In the following sample, a maximum of 100 characters is checked for the string Name.

Image RemovedModel Length LimitationImage Added

Ids have a fixed length, therefore the minimum and maximum values are the same:

Authorization

This section covers the authorization options for REST-API integrations. For the authorization you have different options with REST API; as described in the next chapters. If you are authorized you will get a HTTP/200 Ok info. Otherwise you will get a 401 Unauthorized error.

Consider, that our system expects the full callback url, including the parameter list you expect, with the placeholders that should be replaced by values at runtime. You can also add your own paramter parameter for that envelope (e.g. internal references). Moreover, on our shared SaaS environments only HTTPS callbacks (port 443, and 1025-65535) callbacks are allowed.

These events are fired by the Workstep Controller (internal component) and are fired before the data in eSAW is complete updated (some post-processing is required). Therefore this event callbacks are used only in rare integrations.
