Check document status DocuSign

Tags:

docusignapi

How can I check if a document is signed with DocuSign API? Exists any API service that lets me know the document status?

I tried to obtain all objects in "completed" folder but the response doesn't contains documentId and I can't know which of documents is each of the objects

How long does it take to get DocuSign documents?

82% of DocuSign eSignature agreements are completed in less than 24 hours and 50% in less than 15 minutes.

How do I know when my DocuSign expires?

When an envelope expires, DocuSign voids the envelope. When this happens, the envelope will no longer appear in the Expiring Soon folder. You should be able to find it in your Sent folder though. If you click on FILTERS and set status to Voided, you may be able to find the envelope more easily.

How do I know when my DocuSign is signed?

When the recipient views the envelope, the date is recorded. Signed - The recipient has finished signing the envelope. Needs to View - The recipient has not yet viewed the envelope.

What does correct status mean in DocuSign?

You can correct an envelope for recipients who have not yet signed if the envelope is in process. Any signers who have already signed prior to the correction will not see the changes or be prompted to sign the document again.

DocuSign tracks Recipient status and Envelope status (but not Document status). In other words:

  • If Envelope status = Completed, you can safely assume that each Recipient in the envelope workflow supplied all information that the Sender marked as Required.

  • If Recipient status = Completed, you can safely assume that the Recipient supplied all information that the Sender marked as Required for him/her.

You have several options for determining the status of a Recipient or an Envelope:

  • Use the DocuSign REST API (https://developers.docusign.com/docs/esign-rest-api/reference/envelopes/envelopes/get/). If you're wanting to query for the status of a single envelope-- the operation is: GET https://{{env}}.docusign.net/restapi/{{version}}/accounts/{{acctId}}/envelopes/{{envId}}

  • Use the DocuSign SOAP API (http://www.docusign.com/sites/default/files/DocuSignAPI_Guide.pdf).

  • Use DocuSign Connect, such that Connect will notify your "listener" application about Envelope and/or Recipient statuses that you specify. See here

Finally, when querying for Envelope status using either the REST API or SOAP API, keep in mind the polling limitations that DocuSign imposes on the request status operations. These limitations are described in the API Best Practices guide
