When true, comments are allowed on the envelope.

When true, the Document Markup feature is enabled.

Note: To use this feature, Document Markup must be enabled at both the account and envelope levels. Only Admin users can change this setting at the account level.

When true, the recipient can redirect an envelope to a more appropriate recipient.

When true, this enables the Recursive Recipients feature and allows a recipient to appear more than once in the routing order.

Deprecated. This feature has been replaced by signing groups.

When true, the envelope is queued for processing and the value of the status property is set to Processing. Additionally, GET status calls return Processing until completed.

The URI for retrieving the envelope attachments.

When true, marks all of the documents in the envelope as authoritative copies.

Note: You can override this value for a specific document. For example, you can set the authoritativeCopy property to true at the envelope level, but turn it off for a single document by setting the authoritativeCopy property for the document to false.

The URI for retrieving all of the documents associated with the envelope as a single PDF file.

The URI for retrieving all of the documents associated with the envelope as separate files.

This optional element holds the body of the email message that is sent to all envelope recipients.

For information about adding merge field information to the email subject, see Template Email Subject Merge Fields.

Note: The subject line is limited to 100 characters, including any merged fields.It is not truncated. It is an error if the text is longer than 100 characters.

When true, the signer is allowed to print the document and sign it on paper.

When true, the option selected in the Document Visibility section in your account Sending Settings will be enforced for the envelope. See Fields and Properties for details about document visibility options. Setting enforceSignerVisibility to true also enables you to omit documents from the specified recipients' envelopes by using the excludedDocuments array. Recipients that have an administrative role (Agent, Editor, or Intermediaries) or informational role (Certified Deliveries or Carbon Copies) can always see all of the documents in an envelope, unless they are specifically excluded by using the excludedDocuments setting when an envelope is sent. Documents that do not have tabs are always visible to all recipients, unless they are excluded by using the excludedDocuments setting.

Note: To use this functionality, document visibility must be enabled for the account. The document visibility feature is available in all developer accounts, but only in certain production account plans. Contact Docusign Support or your account manager to find out whether document visibility is available for your production account plan.

The envelope ID.

When used as a request body in Envelopes: create, this is the ID of the envelope to clone.

When true, Envelope ID Stamping is enabled. After a document or attachment is stamped with an Envelope ID, the ID is seen by all recipients and becomes a permanent part of the document and cannot be removed.
