latestSwagger 2.02026-07-134146194.6 MBUpdates custom tab information.
Updates the information in a custom tab for the specified account.
Path parameters
The external account number (int) or account ID GUID.
The Docusign-generated custom tab ID for the custom tab to be applied. This can only be used when adding new tabs for a recipient. When used, the new tab inherits all the custom tab properties.
Request body
An optional string that is used to auto-match tabs to strings located in the documents of an envelope.
This property controls how anchor tabs are placed. When true, the text string in a document must match the case of the anchorString property for an anchor tab to be created. The default value is false.
For example, when set to true, if the anchor string is DocuSign, then DocuSign will match but Docusign, docusign, DoCuSiGn, etc. will not match. When false, DocuSign, Docusign, docusign, DoCuSiGn, etc. will all match.
This functionality uses the following rules:
-
Unless punctuation is specified in the anchorString, this functionality ignores punctuation and the following characters:
$~><|^+=
For example, the anchorString water will match on the string Fetch a pail of water.
-
Strings embedded in other strings are ignored during the matching process.
-
In words that have dashes, the parts separated by dashes are treated as distinct words.
Example: If the anchor string is forget, then an anchor tab is placed on the forget in forget-me-not, even when anchorMatchWholeWord is set to true.
-
Letters with accent marks are treated as distinct characters from their unaccented counterparts.
-
For single-character anchor strings, if the two characters appear right next to each other in the document, a single anchor tab is placed for both of them.
Example: If the anchor string is i, then only one anchor tab is placed in skiing.
-
Unlike punctuation, numbers are not ignored when finding anchor words.
Example: If the anchor string is cat, then -cat- is matched but 1cat2 is not when anchorMatchWholeWord is set to true (its default value).
Note: You can only specify the value of this property in POST requests.
This property controls how anchor tabs are aligned in relation to the anchor text. Possible values are :
- left: Aligns the left side of the tab with the beginning of the first character of the matching anchor word. This is the default value.
- right: Aligns the tab’s left side with the last character of the matching anchor word.
Note: You can only specify the value of this property in POST requests.
When true, this tab is ignored if the anchorString is not found in the document.
When true, the text string in a document must match the value of the anchorString property in its entirety for an anchor tab to be created. The default value is false.
For example, when set to true, if the input is man then man will match but manpower, fireman, and penmanship will not. When false, if the input is man then man, manpower, fireman, and penmanship will all match.
