About DocuSeal

DocuSeal is an open-source electronic signature platform that combines document signing, fillable PDF form creation, multi-party collaboration, and workflow automation with enterprise-grade security and compliance. With a WYSIWYG form builder supporting multiple field types, industry-standard digital signatures verifiable for authenticity, and compliance with eIDAS, ESIGN, and UETA regulations, DocuSeal enables organizations to streamline signing processes through REST API integration, embedded JavaScript widgets, and webhook automation. Available as both cloud-hosted and self-hosted solutions with SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certifications, DocuSeal provides role-based permissions, SSO/SAML authentication, audit trails, and white-labeling capabilities for businesses requiring secure, customizable document signing workflows.

The DocuSeal API enables developers to:

• Authenticate using API Key authentication via X-Auth-Token HTTP headers for secure programmatic access to document signing and submission management.

• Query submissions, templates, documents, signers, and completion status with filtering and tracking capabilities.

• Create or update document submissions, template configurations, signer information, form fields, and workflow automations programmatically.

• Manage complex document workflows with support for multiple signers, conditional fields, file uploads, digital signatures, identity verification, and audit trail generation.

• Subscribe to real-time events through webhooks for submission creation, document completion, signer actions, and form field updates.

Why Integrate DocuSeal with Emergent

Connecting DocuSeal directly often requires setting up API Key authentication with X-Auth-Token headers, managing webhook endpoints, mapping document and submission schemas with custom fields, handling multi-signer workflows, synchronizing signature data across CRM and storage platforms, and building custom dashboards or compliance tracking interfaces. Each integration can quickly turn into a substantial development project requiring e-signature and API expertise.

Emergent removes that complexity:

• Build by prompt, describe the DocuSeal app you want and the document workflows you need, and Emergent automatically scaffolds the UI, orchestration, data models, and integrations.

• Schema-aware mapping, Emergent understands DocuSeal's data structure including submissions, templates, documents, signers, form fields, signature status, and audit trails, helping you map document signing data accurately across CRM, storage, and collaboration platforms.

• Secure by design, features include encrypted key vaults for API Keys, environment isolation, role-based access, and audit-friendly logs, making it suitable for organizations with strict document security, compliance requirements, and signature authenticity needs.

• Real-time workflows, webhooks, retries, backoff, caching, batching, and error handling are built in for reliability and consistency across document submission and signature completion.

• Orchestrate multiple tools by combining DocuSeal with Salesforce, Slack, Google Sheets, Airtable, and HubSpot to build unified contract platforms, automated signature-to-CRM flows, document compliance hubs, and cross-functional approval dashboards.

How Emergent Works with DocuSeal in Real Time?

STEP 1: Describe your app

Example: "Build a contract management hub that syncs DocuSeal signed documents with Salesforce opportunities, sends Slack notifications when signatures are completed, exports signing data to Google Sheets for compliance tracking, maintains document history in Airtable, and tracks contract milestones in HubSpot."

STEP 2: Declare integrations

Say "DocuSeal + Salesforce + Slack + Google Sheets + Airtable + HubSpot." Emergent sets up providers, authentication, and recommended connection methods including API Key authentication with X-Auth-Token headers.

STEP 3: Secure credentials

Provide your DocuSeal API Key from your dashboard settings. Keys are stored in an encrypted vault with environment isolation for development, staging, and production.

STEP 4: Select data sources and map properties

Emergent automatically introspects your DocuSeal workspace, including submissions, templates, documents, signers, form fields, signature status, and completion dates.

It then guides you to map properties accurately such as DocuSeal submissions to CRM records, signed documents to file storage, signer information to contact databases, and completion status to workflow triggers.

STEP 5: Real-time and scheduled flows

Configure event triggers using DocuSeal webhooks for submission creation, document completion, signer actions, or form field updates. Set up scheduled syncs or define on-demand actions such as button clicks in the app.

STEP 6: Test and preview

Run test queries, simulate webhook payloads, validate document synchronization and signature tracking workflows, check logs, and automatically handle API Key authentication and rate limits.

STEP 7: Deploy

Deploy your app with one click, complete with versioning, monitoring, error alerts, and usage analytics. You can easily roll back or iterate on prompts.

STEP 8: Expand

Add new steps like AI-powered document routing, automated compliance validation, or predictive signature completion tracking. Connect additional tools and integrate new document types without any rewrites.
