Create Unclaimed Draft
Creates a new Draft that can be claimed using the claim URL. The first authenticated user to access the URL will claim the Draft and will be shown either the "Sign and send" or the "Request signature" page with the Draft loaded. Subsequent access to the claim URL will result in a 404.
Request body
Use files[] to indicate the uploaded file(s) to send for signature.
This endpoint requires either files or file_urls[], but not both.
Use file_urls[] to have Dropbox Sign download the file(s) to send for signature.
This endpoint requires either files or file_urls[], but not both.
Allows signers to decline to sign a document if true. Defaults to false.
The email addresses that should be CCed.
Client id of the app used to create the draft. Used to apply the branding and callback url defined for the app.
Send with a value of true if you wish to enable automatic Text Tag removal. Defaults to false. When using Text Tags it is preferred that you set this to false and hide your tags with white text or something similar because the automatic removal system can cause unwanted clipping. See the Text Tags walkthrough for more details.
The custom message in the email that will be sent to the signers.
Key-value data that should be attached to the signature request. This metadata is included in all API responses and events involving the signature request. For example, use the metadata field to store a signer's order number for look up when receiving events for the signature request.
Each request can include up to 10 metadata keys (or 50 nested metadata keys), with key names up to 40 characters long and values up to 1000 characters long.
When only one step remains in the signature request process and this parameter is set to false then the progress stepper will be hidden.
The URL you want signers redirected to after they successfully sign.
The subject in the email that will be sent to the signers.
Whether this is a test, the signature request created from this draft will not be legally binding if set to true. Defaults to false.
The type of unclaimed draft to create. Use send_document to create a claimable file, and request_signature for a claimable signature request. If the type is request_signature then signers name and email_address are not optional.
Set use_text_tags to true to enable Text Tags parsing in your document (defaults to disabled, or false). Alternatively, if your PDF contains pre-defined fields, enable the detection of these fields by setting the use_preexisting_fields to true (defaults to disabled, or false). Currently we only support use of either use_text_tags or use_preexisting_fields parameter, not both.
