Before you use the API Reference, we recommend you to read the API Documentation, to get an overview about our programming interface, data types and basic concepts. If you are looking for examples, we recommend the Hello World Tutorial, the SoapUI Sample, Postman Sample, REST Guide and our Stories and Examples (with all XML calls).

titleCancelEnvelope_v1

The “cancel” operation is related to the workflow. Cancel means, an already sent signing process will be stopped and canceled. The envelope is not deleted (the same applies for a draft, as it hasn’t been started yet).


Expand
titleCopyDocumentFromTemplate_v1

For this call you just need the templateId. The response of this call is a new SspFileId and the workstep configuration of the template. Therefore, with this call you get all information (workstep configuration and the document) to send an envelope afterwards.


Expand
titleCreateDraftFromTemplate_v1

Creates a draft with the given parameters.

Parameters

sspFileIds: Reference to files already uploaded to the SSP server e.g. using the uploadTemporarySspFileV1 call

envelopeDescriptionXml: The envelope configuration (<envelope>…</envelope>). In a draft, defining a workstep configuration is not supported.

draftOptionsXml: With the draft options, the redirect url and the callback url can be specified. See also callbacks.

<draftOptions>
    <afterSendRedirectUrl>http://www.mycallback.at/DraftAfterSendRedirect?envelope=##EnvelopeId##&action=##Action##</afterSendRedirectUrl>
    <afterSendCallbackUrl>http://www.mycallback.at/DraftAfterSendCallback?envelope=##EnvelopeId##&action=##Action##</afterSendCallbackUrl>

</draftOptions>

Result

DraftId


Expand
titleCreateDraft_v1

Creates the Draft on the server. See Implementation for information how to integrate the draft in your environment. For more details of parameter envelopeDescriptionXml see: The Envelope XML


Expand
titleDeleteEnvelope_v1

After an envelope has been completed (i.e. all signers signed, and the result was downloaded and stored in any kind of document management system), implementors should take care about deleting the envelope from the SignAnyWhere servers. This should be done as general system cleanup best-practise, and also for security issues (there were links sent to recipients containing the envelope reference, why do you want to keep this links alive when documents were moved to a document management system where you probably have a different permission strategy)


Expand
titleDisposeSspFile_v1

Removes the previously uploaded document (using UploadTemporarySspFile_v1) to the SIGNificant Server Platform again.


Expand
titleDownloadCompletedDocument_v1

The file id has to be retrieved from GetEnvelopeById_v1. Attention: just documents of finished envelopes can be downloaded. The returned file id from the uploading call will cause an error (invalid file id).


Expand
titleFindEnvelopes_v1

Please use the FindEnvelopes_v2 function.

resultFormat:

titleReplaceRecipient_v1

You can replace a recipient via API as long as it is not the recipient’s turn. You also can replace the workstep configuration of a recipient, if the envelope was created via API and the recipient is a signer.

titleSendReminders_v1

In case you don’t want to wait on the automatic reminders for a recipient, you can manually send the reminder. Just use the envelope-id with this function and it will automatically remind the current recipient about his or her signing task. Please note, that you can only resend reminders every 12 hours (default value), to prevent a spaming of the recipient. This value can be changed on private SaaS or on premise instances.


Expand
titleUnlockEnvelope_v1

This call only requires an envelope id to unlock a recipient in a parallel use case. So if a signer has opened his document in the parallel case and didn’t finish it, it can be reverted and the others can open it. It is the same functionality as in the UI to unlock the envelope.


Expand
