How to allow signers to reassign the document using BoldSign API?
When sending documents for signatures via BoldSign, you might encounter scenarios where a signer wishes to reassign the document to another person. BoldSign provides a feature that allows signers to reassign the document to someone else.
Enable signer's ability to reassign the document
When you want to allow signers to reassign documents, include the EnableReassign
property set to true
in your send
API call.
Here are code examples demonstrating how to achieve this:
Code snippet
curl -X 'POST' \ 'https://api.boldsign.com/v1/document/send' \ -H 'accept: application/json' \ -H 'X-API-KEY: {your API key}' \ -H 'Content-Type: multipart/form-data' \ -F 'EnableReassign= true' \ -F 'Message=' \ -F 'Signers={ "name": "Hanky", "emailAddress": "hankyWhites@cubeflakes.com", "signerType": "Signer", "formFields": [ { "id": "string", "name": "string", "fieldType": "Signature", "pageNumber": 1, "bounds": { "x": 50, "y": 50, "width": 1, "height": 1 }, "isRequired": true } ], "locale": "EN" }' \ -F 'Files={your file}' \ -F 'Title={title}' \
var apiClient = new ApiClient("https://api.boldsign.com", "{your API key}"); var documentClient = new DocumentClient(apiClient); var documentFilePath = new DocumentFilePath { ContentType = "application/pdf", FilePath = "{Your file path}", }; var filesToUpload = new List<IDocumentFile> { documentFilePath, }; var signatureField = new FormField( id: "sign", isRequired: true, type: FieldType.Signature, pageNumber: 1, bounds: new Rectangle(x: 100, y: 100, width: 100, height: 50)); var formFieldCollections = new List<FormField>() { signatureField }; var signer = new DocumentSigner( signerName: "David", signerEmail: "david@cubeflakes.com", formFields: formFieldCollections, locale: Locales.EN); var documentSigners = new List<DocumentSigner>() { signer }; var sendForSign = new SendForSign() { Message = "please sign this", Title = "Agreement", EnableReassign = true, Signers = documentSigners, Files = filesToUpload }; var documentCreated = documentClient.SendDocument(sendForSign);
import requests import json url = "https://api.boldsign.com/v1/document/send" signer_data = { "name": "Hanky", "emailAddress": "hankyWhites@cubeflakes.com", "signerType": "Signer", "formFields": [ { "id": "string", "name": "string", "fieldType": "Signature", "pageNumber": 1, "bounds": { "x": 50, "y": 50, "width": 1, "height": 1 }, "isRequired": True } ], "locale": "EN" } payload = { 'EnableReassign': True, 'Message': '', 'Signers': json.dumps(signer_data), 'Title': '{title}' } files = [ ('Files', ( 'doc-2.pdf', open('{Your file path}', 'rb'), 'application/pdf' )) ] headers = { 'accept': 'application/json', 'X-API-KEY': '{Your API Key}' } response = requests.request("POST", url, headers=headers, data=payload, files=files) print(response.text)
const axios = require('axios'); const FormData = require('form-data'); const fs = require('fs'); let data = new FormData(); data.append('EnableReassign', 'true'); data.append('Message', ''); data.append('Signers', '{\r\n "name": "Hanky",\r\n "emailAddress": "hankyWhites@cubeflakes.com",\r\n "signerType": "Signer",\r\n "formFields": [\r\n {\r\n "id": "string",\r\n "name": "string",\r\n "fieldType": "Signature",\r\n "pageNumber": 1,\r\n "bounds": {\r\n "x": 50,\r\n "y": 50,\r\n "width": 1,\r\n "height": 1\r\n },\r\n "isRequired": true\r\n }\r\n ],\r\n "locale": "EN"\r\n}'); data.append('Files', fs.createReadStream('{Your file path}')); data.append('Title', '{title}'); let config = { method: 'post', maxBodyLength: Infinity, url: 'https://api.boldsign.com/v1/document/send', headers: { 'accept': 'application/json', 'X-API-KEY': '{Your API key}', ...data.getHeaders() }, data : data }; axios.request(config) .then((response) => { console.log(JSON.stringify(response.data)); }) .catch((error) => { console.log(error); });
By setting the EnableReassign
property to true, you ensure that signers have the option to reassign the document to another person. Make sure to execute the above code and provide the necessary fields such as Files,
Title,
and Signers.
This approach allows signers to reassign the document as needed.
